The first time I went to Meijer this week, I can't believe that the cashier was even a cashier! He was soooooo slow!!! I got into the checkout line at 3:18 pm there was two people in front of me; one person he was halfway through her order when I got into the line and the other person only had about 20 items. I had looked at the other lanes and they were filled even more so I stuck with where I was at and besides he had not dealt with me before and my stack of coupons!! Well by the time it was my turn was 3:28pm, he finished my order up and I was walking out the door at 3:42pm!!! I can't believe that I spent almost 1/2 hour in line on a Wednesday afternoon!!! At any rate, I do not think I will be going through his lane again anytime soon.
