Actually it is kinda funny to put milk or bottles of vodka upright then
laugh when the supermarket has to replace them for free.

In France they actually have a little sign asking you to lay bottles
down on the belt.

And in the UK.

The trouble is that if you are shopping for a party and have a number of
bottles, plus food, laying the bottles down means that the belt ends up
full and you can't fit all of your shopping on, yet you need to be at
the other end packing things away!
