Often, when shopping at Aldi, I like to ask the person with 5 items behind me if they'd like to go in front of me. The person always seems pleasantly surprised, and says, "Yes! thanks!"
They never say,
"No, that's all right. It will take me at least twice as long to buy these 5 items than it will take you to buy your cart full. You see, besides simultaneously using my phone while at the checkout, I will be using 3 different methods of payment, and each will take at least 2 minutes. Then after my transaction is finally over, I'll remember that I need to buy a bag. Then I will be slowly removing my items from the same cart that the cashier is putting your items into. So, no, I'll stay back here and wait."
