Some dude behind me notices I only have half a cart full and says just slip around to the front desk where they sell all the lottery tickets, smokes, and movies. No line...I was gone in three minutes. In a situation were all the lines were backed into the isles...I felt like a jerk looking back at all the folk's..I did give the guy a thumbs up, and mouthed Thank You.

I must not get to town enough, I'd never even thought of that before. Apparently nobody else did either that day.-WW
Yup - for just a couple of things the service desk at Publix. But then, they are good about always having enough folks on registers.

Only way I can stand to pay money at Walmart is to go to the Sporting Goods counter and check out there. No lines... and 90% of the time I'm buying ammo anyway, so I have to check out there....

(the other 10% I want to buy ammo but Wally is out of the calibers I shoot)
