Shopping Woes

Waiting can be a cause of consternation

When the  cashier is having problems.

Seems the item has no price tag

And so the hunt goes to find one.

 

Not the cashiers fault but the buyer,

In most cases I have observed.

If you like an item that has no price sticker,

ask an employee before going to the cashier.

 

I know many times there are not enough

Employee's around to help you.

Other times there is the same item

With a price tag, if you look.

 

This happens so often and is a drag.

What's a person to do but wait.

I try to have my money out and ready

To pay for the items bought with no delay.

Those price tags are swapped with others so that the buyer can “get over” the cashier.
