Mister M Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 People who stand for ages at the shelves you want to get something from (usually the reduced section). When I say 'Can I reach over for something', I normally get a surly response back. Some people's social graces go out of the window when shopping....

iansheff Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Maybe stores that have two escalators going up could have one dedicated to trolleys so the people without them could get up 30 seconds quicker on the trolley free escalator.

Maybe you should shop somewhere more upmarket instead. ---------- Post added 26-09-2016 at 19:17 ---------- Waitrose has a nice level entrance. Problem solved That's too upmarket. ---------- Post added 26-09-2016 at 19:19 ---------- Maybe stores that have two escalators going up could have one dedicated to trolleys so the people without them could get up 30 seconds quicker on the trolley free escalator. Asda in Parson Cross has two upwards escalators . . . both of which are used by trolley pushers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bloke Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Asda in Parson Cross has two upwards escalators . . . both of which are used by trolley pushers That's just reminded me of that very funny 'surveillance photo' captured some time ago by Mr Alco. I've tried to find it on here, but no luck. Let's hope he pops in later and posts it again! EDIT: Having just spent an enjoyable 30 mins or so reading many old threads, I've just managed to find it. So, here it is for anyone who is remotely interested. Those were the days when we had lots of fun threads on here...

tzijlstra Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I don't like shopping and I don't because there are too many people. I try and shop daft hours wherever I can, problems seem to disappear at 2AM in the morning, although usually the good fresh stock has as well by then...

If you don't have a trolley (or other good reason) then why take the escalator instead of the stairs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have 3 escalators one for trolleys, one for young fit folk who can run/skip up and one for older people who can go at their own pace, maybe have a coffee at a lay-by half way up!

Ms Macbeth Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Can't disagree with any of the OPs points, would like to add one more. Please wait til I've paid before you push past to arrange your bags in the bagging area. Sadly it's usually people in my age group (old) who do this, and it only seems to happen in Morrisons!

Joanl Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I often wish I knew if it was a VIP shopping day before I went and then I wouldn't bother going....I really hate those days...all those VIP's charging around.....can't help getting in their way. If only they knew....they might be VERY IMPORTANT in their own minds but that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
