[quote=Anonymous]Like many things in life every situation is different. I tend to shop at the same Safeway every week and have gotten to know the employees. They know my children's names and who is in what grade. They even know when we have been on a trip if we have missed a week. I used to stand in line and pay for an apple/muffin/insert item of the week at the begining of the shopping trip so my kids could eat the item AFTER we had paid for it. About the 3rd time I did this the store manager came up to me and said it wasn't necessary, "just let us know at check out". So, if we are shopping here my answer is yes I will let my kids eat something and then pay for it. If we are at a different store then No we go pay for an item first. Although the many times I have paid for just the single item, midway through shopping, the clerk has been perplexed and asked why I didn't just let the kids eat it and then pay for it.[/quote]
