I'll repeat this.

ProTip: Leave a bag of bags in the car. When you shop, use a cart. Skip the bagging at the cashier and have them just put everything back in the cart. Bag at your car in peace and at your own pace. The cashier will appreciate you. The bagger will appreciate you. The other shoppers in line will appreciate you. Most of all, your nerves will appreciate you.

+1 on leaving bags in the car

And this concept of bagging at the car just blew my mind

It’s not even extra hassle to me because I hate how the cashiers were bagging items anyway. Problem solved. No waste. Exactly how you want it every time.

We have this awesome thing in a lot of places where you can use a scanner and scan as you shop. You can put the bag in the cart and bag while you shop. When you get to the self checkout, you can use the scanner and instantly pay for everything and be out within seconds. I pay with my phone so just a touch is needed and I'm out of there. If you are the carry bags kind you can even take the bag out of the cart, return the cart to the correct place and walk to the car with the bag. It's so fast and efficient.

I've become so spoiled I actively avoid places that don't have such a thing. And I hate people who have a full cart at the self checkout and scan everything much much slower than the regular checkout with a person who's job it is to do that. It's fine if you have like 5 items and just scan them quickly at the self checkout. Anything beyond that really should be scanned during the shopping or just go to the regular checkout which is designed to handle a lot of stuff.

Not too much but they've been under cooking the blueberry muffins so I quit ordering them.

Other people bagging stuff for you is a thing? I have never seen it in my life in Europe. Unless you have a disability then to me it just seems like adding extra work to the workers for no real purpose
