Have you noticed that they used to fill the grocery bags so that they

Then 10 or 20 years ago they got the idea to sort the stuff. *Now I
can see putting all the frozen food in one bag, but they do it with
everything.

If I buy 2 2-liter bottles of soda pop, they put them both in one bag,
so that it way outweighs any other bag.

Tonight I bought two 3.2 quart. bottles of clothes detergent, and they
put them in one bag, over 12 pounds, more than everything else I
bought put together. *That's the way they do it now. .

I drive my wife to the store, she does the shopping while I sit in the
car with a newspaper. I then drive her home.
I never worry about bags except whenI lift them out of the car and
carry them indoors when I get home. I would never dream of looking
inside one.
I recommend you take up this practice, it is very stress free.

Okay. You make a good point . When is your wife free?

In Wales, they are even better organised, they have pubs right next to
the shops.
