To make up for all the times when we get into the wrong checkout line because it turns out to be the slowest one - or when we make matters worse by changing lanes to an even slower one, sometimes we just get lucky.
Ever have a checker open a new line and ask you to be first in line? Ever have someone vacate the parking space right next to the door just as you were approaching?
Tonight, something akin to this happened. I was in Sam's Club. Those of you who shop there know that checking out sometimes is the hardest part.
Well, I picked up a few items and headed for the checkout. The first few lanes were closed - not a good sign. Then I finally saw a lane that was open - and there was no one waiting to check out. I eventually saw two other lanes that were open with no one waiting. This has got to be a first and last time for this. The store seemed to have an average number of shoppers - just no one else was ready to check out when I was.
