Do you eat at the supermarket while shopping? (1 Viewer)

Same lazy slobs that are either on a motorized cart or too lazy to walk 30ft to place their carts in the corral.

Love watching the fat asses camp out by the free sample stations at Costco.
I'm not talking about this... I mean like a juice, a snickers, maybe a pastry, or a cup of fruit salad while you're walking around doing your shopping.
And you just put the empty Snickers wrapper and sticky fruit cup on the check out belt?

How about donuts out the serve yourself section. Between that and a couple chocolate milks why ever bother buying breakfast??

I see fatties buying empty candy wrappers fairly regularly.

 
I get a soda, but always pay for it when going thru check out. Figure it's a minor waste of time to pay first, and sometimes if I've paid first, I have thrown away the receipt before doing my big check out so its a hassle to say I've already paid for it.

I'd never purposefully take something with the idea of eating it without paying; that's stealing. With a toddler I might give them a snack, but include what I fed the kid in a charge.

 
Depends which grocery store I'm at. The larger one has a great employee break room and I'll slip in there to cook up some szechuan noodles (I bring my own chopsticks). Otherwise I'll just put some chips and salsa in the top part of the cart and a beer or two. Nothing major. No reason you can't enjoy shopping so long as you pay for everything. Which I don't if it's just a burrito or a can of tuna.

 
So nobody else takes a rotisserie chicken and feeds their family while shopping? You guys are doing it wrong, learn how to multitask.

I cannot stand people who grocery shop with the entire family. How weird is that? It's a grocery store, not a gun range.
If you've never had a fresh bag of Ore Ida's out of the bag in the freezer section with your family in the supermarket, you haven't lived a full ifs m.

 
The only people I ever see doing this are really big women, with like four kids, who have no hope of ever having a job that pays more than $15 an hour.

 
I did once, and felt like a rube. Had a pretty lengthy walmart list, and the little in-store Subway was closed...So I ate a 3-pack of cookies while shopping and rang up the package during checkout. I guess it worked in a pinch, but not something I'd like to do often.

The real #######s are the ones who eat produce while browsing so they don't have to pay for it. I see this frequently being done with bananas.

 
There's a Starbucks in the store so if I'm morning shopping (usually go Sunday am), I may or may not grab a coffee while I go.

Actually opening groceries while I shop though? No, that's stupid.

When I was young (like 4-5ish), my mom found a snickers wrapper in my pocket after a trip to the store. She knew exactly where it came from. She made me take money out of my piggy bank and took me back to the store to pay for it.

 
I've opened a box of crackers or goldfish to give one of the kids but always paid for it. Now that I think about it, I've gotten sodas and drank them too - I've done that on several occasions.

 
I do all my cooking prep work as I go while shopping. I usually bring a small cutting board that fits safely onto the top part of the cart and either a set of mini Wusthof knives or a mandolin.

By the time I'm done shopping, I have my onions diced, chicken marinating and if there's time I'll bust out my pocket hot plate and get the water boiling as well.

Once a year, I actually host a chili cook off with some friends in the magazine aisle.
