Supermarkets ....she usually wants to go a hour before a big match on telly so therefor you are in a rush to get home........BUT THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT TO STOP YOU,,,,you know the ones.
driving round looking for a space...the missus says "theres one up there" only to get there and it`s a smartcar hidden behind a lancruiser
the person who holds up the whole line because she forgot her checkbook in the car or just needs to go grab one onion.

You have one pint of milk to purchase. You are about to walk into the express lane (which clearly states 10 items or less), when in front of you pulls a shopper with a cart overflowing with groceries. This isn't the "I-am-not-sure-if-I-have-10-or-11-items" cart, it's the "I-am-feeding-a-family-of-seven-and-we-eat-a-lot"
the twat shopper who waits until the very last minute to find her checkbook and begin filling out her personal check. If you are paying by check, which already takes longer than most other methods of payment, here's a hint: Have your checkbook out and your check pre-filled, so that when you get the final total that's all you need to pop in! (Same goes for debit cards, credit cards, cash or any other type of payment -- you shouldn't be digging through your purse for it at the last minute!)
people who are pretty certain they won't have enough money to pay for all their groceries, but wait until the entire order is rung up to figure out what they will put back.
It used to be that you could walk down the aisle and little hanging tags would alert you to items that were on "sale." It's not so easy anymore. Nowadays, there are little tags for just about everything, including tags to just let you know this is an "Everyday Low Price."
the sideways trolly
it can be annoying enough to wait forever in a long checkout line, but it's a special kind of annoying to be waiting forever in a long checkout line while 90% of the store's registers are closed -- even during prime shopping time. Poor planning? Everyone call in sick? Store cost cutting? You're undoubtedly left with plenty of time to ponder the reason for the apparent silliness.
people in the checkout line who don't move up and out of the way when they are through putting their purchases on the conveyer belt. We can't do anything with you standing there
You're in a hurry, there aren't enough cashiers, the express lane is full of "abusers," so you try the self-checkout lane only to find that something isn't scanning and you have to wait for a cashier to be called over to help you anyway. So much for time saved
looking for an item that is located in a section that makes absolutely no sense or a favorite item that has abruptly been moved from its familiar spot,
the person in front has a product that wont scan then having to wait for a superviser
just as you finally get to the cashier it`s their dinner break and you have to wait for the changeover
i am sure there`s plenty more
