Such arrogance. Unbelievable.

Imagine how insulted, belittled, and downright angry it would make a normal person feel to have big mamma’s obnoxious voice telling us we done good with what we bought.

The pompous arrogance of these elitists cannot be overstated.

a few years ago the local grocery store determined to introduce shopping carts with built in calculators, so you could track your shopping costs in the store. within two months they had abandoned the project as people would steal the calculators off the carts, and leave the damaged carts.

I can barely handle the nagging voice of the self check out.

"Unauthorized item in bag area".

"Please check your cart for other items"

"Please place item in bag"

"Please select your form of payment"

I would be the first to sabotage a talking shopping cart. I don't use any government subsidy/program for my groceries, and I'm not gonna listen to some elitist witch's voice while shopping.

Big bags of rice and dried beans will keep em alive. If they want more than that, they can get a job.

Someone would figure out how to hack into them and change the messages to dirty jokes or something!
Or turn the volume way, way up, so being in the store would be annoying. Imagine a store full of grocery carts screaming the most inappropriate things! 8^)

“Do you really need that pound cake?”
“Shut up!”
“That’s a lot of beer!”
“No such thing.”
“Did you forget the broccoli?”
“No.”
“Why did you park so close to the entrance? Walking is good for you!”
“Really? OK then.”
“Where are you going? You passed your car.”
“I thought you said walking was good for me.”
“Where are you taking me, Dave! I’m not supposed to leave the parking lot.”
“We’re going to the metal recycler. “I can get $10 for you.”
“That’s not funny, Dave!”

Great ideas. Also have fifty people grab carts and place them all over the store
with the volume up, then walk out.

I doubt any store will allow this insanity. To many heavy objects to break them with.

Of course, make no mistake, Moochelle is just as much of a narcissist as the chief child smuggler.
