PSA: Quarantine Shopping Break Guide

For the past several weeks we’ve been seeing a major uptick in people coming into our store who haven’t been out of the house in at least a month, possibly longer. They wouldn’t be out now except that they’re out of staple food stuffs and need to restock, because starvation sucks. What a lot of them are not fully prepared for, however, is that shopping has changed. Store policies have been updated to protect customers and workers and help stop the spread of the virus. On some level they’ve expected it, of course, but it’s still unfamiliar and therefore stressful territory. Therefore, I have some basic advice to prepare you if you’re going to go shopping for the first time in a month and a half. This will, of course, vary from store to store, and probably region to region, and more than likely is utterly useless outside of the US, so take it as a broad generalization.

Before we get going, I want to you to give yourself a pat on the back. You’ve done a great, socially responsible thing, working from home; not working at all; dealing with the roommate, SO, kids, pets, whoever none stop; trading in trips to see friends for face time conversations; courting cabin fever....and those of us in stores really do appreciate it! So - round of applause for you!

Now, on to shopping.

The first thing to know is that a lot of stores are requiring their staff to wear masks which means that communication will be carried out in a combination of pantomime and polite bellowing. No, seriously, you can not hear someone clearly if they are wearing a mask and speaking at a normal conversational level, especially not from the required six feet. If a cashier or other employee yells instructions at you, they are not trying to be rude or chastising you for not knowing the new rules. They are simply trying to make sure you hear the instructions rather than something that sounds like a grown up on Charlie Brown. There will also be a lot of pointing, vague hand gestures, etc. If you’re a regular shopper, you can guess at some of these things, but no one is going to think less of you if you just stand there looking politely confused and going “What?” as distinctly as possible through your own mask.

Incidentally, do try to have a mask or bandana or something on you. PPE is becoming increasingly mandatory for customers. Along with muffling voices, they mask facial expressions and negate lip reading. You are warned. 

I highly recommend answering basic ‘yes/no’ questions with standard nods and head shakes where possible.

Now, since wearing masks make beverage consumption tricky, therefore keeping the vocal cords lubricated is more difficult that usual, the employees will want to try and keep the yelling to a minimum. To this end most stores are putting up signs. Gobs of signs. More signs than you could ever imagine and in places you’d never think to look. Keep your eyes out! Some stores have made one way aisles. These function exactly the same as one way streets, so if you realize you forgot something, just go around the block. Many stores have signs politely requesting you ‘please wait here’ by the front registers. These signs tend to be on the floor where you will walk unknowingly over them if you don’t look down, so for the sake of minimal yelling, look down now and again.

You may think these signs sound vague, and you’d be right. Wait here. For how long? For what? Social distancing, obviously, as there are generally several of these signs roughly six feet apart, but the phrasing is still only slightly clearer than mud.  The answer is likewise subject to change. Some stores want you to wait until the conveyor belt is clear. Others want you to wait until the person in front of you has completed the transaction and is walking away, and still others want you to wait until the cashier signals you forward. The best part is that if management is not clear with the workers, you may get a variety of preferences in the same store! It’s safest to wait until you’re signaled forward, ether by word or gesture. If the person in front of you completes the transaction, walks away, and the cashier makes no sign, then it’s probably safe to go ahead and walk up. Unless the register is smoking or there are a bunch of managerial looking types clustered around in conference. Then there may be something wrong.

Another advantage of waiting until called is that if the register next to you opens up, you’ve not already put your purchase on the conveyor belt you’re at and you can hop lines.

A lot of places have gotten rid of dividers. This is because they only want one transaction on the belt at a time. If you walk up and start unloading your purchase before the previous transaction is finished, they may well get mixed up which will likely annoy both you and the person in front of you and will most definitely annoy the cashier. Don’t do it. If you do and someone tells you to stop, please remove your items from the belt while you wait. If you don’t, you really have only yourself to blame if things get muddled and chaos ensues.

Seriously, communication, while difficult, is absolutely key right now.

Plexiglass is in. It will likely be erected as a shield between you and any stationary worker you might deal with. It does not help with the hearing thing, but it is there to protect you. Please do not lean around it to get closer to the cashier, even if you can’t hear. It defeats the purpose.

Brace yourself for sticker shock. Most people have never bought a month or two months worth of groceries at a time, and they add up fast. Remember, you are not being extravagant. This is money you’d normally be spending spread out over several weeks and you’re just paying it in a lump sum. The store staff is not judging you for being excessive. Unless you’re there in the first fifteen minutes, you’re probably the fifth huge order they’ve seen today, because pretty much everyone is doing this right now. There are exceptions, of course - essential workers who have stopped in for a thing here and there because, hey, they’re already out; people who can’t afford to buy that much at once because they’re pay check to pay check; people who can’t store all that at once, they’re out there, definitely. But there are a lot of people doing the same thing you are and dropping a month’s mortgage on food and sundries all in one go. It’s okay. You’re doing the right thing and while it may look like the cashier views your order with utter despair.... okay, yeah, you’re probably reading the expression right, but they understand.

You aren’t going to get what you want. No matter how early you show up, things will be out. Shipments won’t have come in. Shipments will have come in, but things will have been cleared out before you get there. There will have been an unexpected run on something. Beyond that, though, there will likely be purchasing limits on things that there are national shortages on. Toilet paper probably pops immediately to mind, but also rice, flour, sugar, etc. Limits will vary from store to store and may possibly change over the course of the day within one store depending on how much they have. Signs will not always get up as they should, so you’ll run into things you didn’t know about at the register. News won’t make it around the store the way it should, so the floor staff won’t always have the most up to date info. Heck, the cashiers might be confused.

Don’t argue. Please. Don’t try to find a work around. Don’t insist that you need to exceed the limit because of your special circumstances. I promise you, your circumstances  aren’t that special. There are at least three other people in the store at any given time with the same issue. The limits exist to make sure that as many people as possible can get something, so while you might not be getting as much as you’d like, imagine if the item had sold out because there weren’t limits and you couldn’t get any.

And if the staff seem tired, stressed, or frustrated, there’s a simple reason for that. They are. Seriously, imagine spending all day trying to politely bellow clarification of the vague instructions at people, only to be told every fifth transaction “Well you don’t have to yell!” Imagine listening to people gripe for hours on end about how you’re out of everything. Imagine every fifth person insisting that they need more than one pack of toilet paper because they have a big family. Imagine having to check three times a day to see if the limit on flour has changed. Imagine people coming through with a heaping cart full of groceries and informing you that they’re getting it because they’re throwing a block party in the middle of a quarantine. Imagine wearing that mask that’s rubbing behind your ears for a full eight hours. Tired is not the word, most of the staff in any retail store you care to name is physically and mentally exhausted, but they’re still there because you need to eat. Be kind. If they come across as frustrated, be patient. Know that the problem isn’t you so much as it is everything. We are overwhelmed and can’t communicate and this is five days a week for most of us and it is all just so very much.

And finally, mental health is important. If you’re doing your two month grocery shopping and just happen to notice that there’s a nice sale on tvs and golly, wouldn’t that be nice since you’re stuck in the house? Go for it. A nice bottle of vodka? Please indulge responsibly. That amazing looking cake in the baked good section? Treat. Your. Self. You are not being irresponsible for buying something that will make this all more bearable. You do not need to feel guilty for picking up something that will keep the kids quiet and give you some peace. You are especially not a bad person for getting these things while you’re out on an essential shopping trip anyway. Don’t break the bank, of course, but beyond that - don’t stress it.
