  2. Oops! I forgot one thing…
  3. Prolonged kid temper tantrums
  4. Aisle blockers
  5. Express lane abuse
  6. Kids on wheels
  7. Payment procrastinator
  8. Let’s put back the…
  9. Sign, sign, everywhere a sign
  10. The ’10-for-$10’ trick

  13. Non-private PIN pads
  14. Lots of closed lanes
