When Heidi and I stopped into Trader Joe's for a few things this afternoon, the line wrapped counterclockwise all around the interior perimeter of the store where the dairy case meets the produce section. Rather than abandon our plan, Heidi joined the line with our empty handbasket while I shopped, stopping back with two or three items every minute or so.
I wondered if our strategy was cheating or if it would annoy our fellow shoppers, but when I finished our list and joined Heidi in line by the cheese case, the lady behind us expressed her admiration. "That's the way to do it!" she laughed. "I'm going to bring backup next time!"
