Damned inconsiderate as most shops will scrap the item if it has been out
of a chilled cabinet.

Seen in the DIY Sheds as well where people have browsed items and then
not put them back on the right hook.

I guess some might say "so what" - but if the shops employ more staff to
keep the shelves tidy then the prices go up.

I mainly feel it is inconsiderate behaviour (which spawns inconsiderate
behaviour) - irrespective of any cost implications.


No surprise there. I regularly chunter on about how the supermarket is the
ideal opportunity to point out to children that other people matter. Not
stopping in the entrance, keeping your trolley to one side of an isle,
allowing others to reach items, not playing about with things you're not
going to buy. Of course the complete opposite is now regularly the case
and don't get me started on how having to pay, frequently seems to come as
a complete surprise. They have rights you know and the rest of us can just
wait until they're done and young mothers are the worst. It's sad
actually, how inconsiderate we've become.

Andy - you are my sort of guy (in a moral way). I won't get into grazing as
they walk around in the store - saw a guy eating a cooked chicken drumstick
the other day in Asda. (Would he pay? Dunno - but can't people control
themselves.)

Oh - and using the toilet and not washing hands before going into the
Supermarket to handle the goods.
