It was on a Saturday evening as well.

I needed to get all of the ingredients for dinner before a school event and succeeded

Edit I should add that dinner was teriyaki salmon with crispy roasted potato wedges,rice, and a spinach salad.

    I was going for the big items that they don’t move to much. That helped. The yogurt moved and I was standing for a while next to a lady who was also obviously puzzled as to where it went. I had to buy the brand name to make the time.

    I felt bad since I didn’t have time to chat with the employees like I usually do.

      Are you the kind of person who would usually ask a worker / other shoppers for help finding something? My wife hates it when I do that

        “excuse me, which one of these two computers are better?”

        “well you see, it all started with the performance race of the 90s and millennium with the release of the pentium processor, and the competing k5. Back then you could use a potato chip and still get comperable performance… [7 hours later] I hope that answers your question”

        I’ve abandoned shame long ago I searching for a specific item my wife asked me to get.

        I’ll even ask customer service to direct me to other warehouses that do have the item,

        I’m transitioning to old man that talks to store workers to have a conversation with humans.

        Unrelated, but one time I asked for eggs, when it was the egg apocalypse. There were none on the shelf. The customer service desk stopped me on my way out, after regular check out, and sold me a carton.

        They really try and help.
