    Haha, our CSM has gone really overboard about remind everyone about our customer service "focus area" of alternative bags, there are about 10 laminated signs all over the staff room reminding us to ask if the customer has any alternative bags. there was even one on the back of the toilet...

    It would be interesting to see them try and close most of the registers at 8 on a saturday in my store, we usually still have 3-4 full registers and 1-2 express still open
