This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Plot twist: I don't use a shopping cart. (I always use the textile shopping bag that I bring from home.)

That's considered a security concern in most grocery stores where I live. There are signs telling you not to place any items in your shopping bags until you've paid for them. You must use a cart or waste several minutes hunting around the entrance or registers trying to find where they hid one of their 10 shopping baskets.

Wow, what kind of dystopia do you live in? In my town, they're just happy you went to their store, and I presume cracking down on what little shoplifting there is would drive away more business than it saves.

New Jersey, as I said in another reply it's not a bad area but they have high traffic. I haven't seen the signs in the upper class neighborhoods grocery stores though.

Ew, I guess that's another reason to never live in NJ...
