Harris Teeter (in NC) has free cookies for everyone at the entrance. Take one for Jr on the way in if he's hungry. I take one on the way out b/c I don't like eating in the grocery store.
Wegman's in the north east (at least the Ithaca, NY one) makes you label your own produce. You put the stuff in the bag, put the bag on the scale, punch in the code, get a label. The cashier only has to scan the label now instead of looking up a code.
Time is money. The time saved by self checkout is your discount.
I mainly just by frozen stuff since i'm never home long enough to keep anything else on hand. I just shop at Target now. Not a super target...it's sad that normal target's convenience section seems to meet my needs. Walmart is over 8 miles away while Target is less than 2. No shopper cards, no solicitation to donate money. Just an invitation to sign up for the target card after i've already paid for everything and take my bags.
