A Petty Pet Peeve


I appreciate that the Costco people are kind to children - I really do. But why do they have to make a smiley face on the receipt that I need to keep, and hand said receipt to my child who tears up paper and puts it in her mouth?

If I tell them not to do it, I look like the big ogre mommy. If I let them do it, Katelynn cries when I take it away 3 seconds later.

If this is the biggest of my worries, though, then I am in good shape!

  1. Why do they have to look at the receipt in the first place? We wait in a huge line to check out, then like sheep, we get in another line to have someone "sort of" count our items. What could you steal and put in your basket as you take that walk from the checkout to the door? If it were not for the great prices, I wouldn't put up with it.
