It’s in with the dry pasta...but, of course, always on the VERY TOP shelf...and at 5’1” I always have to ask strangers to get it down for me, LOL!

That’s ok. Sometimes I’ve had very nice encounters when I’ve had to ask, or had someone else ask me, for help.

I usually embarass myself by clearing out a section on the lower shelf and then standing on it to reach the top shelf. It’d hard to find someone tall enough that’s around at the right time. It’s usually women that are doing the shopping. I always hope that nobody working there will see me....LOL

Isn’t it terrible? At my Ralph’s the medium trashbags (for bathroom wastebaskets etc) are on the top shelf. Those are the most useful size. (We don’t have legal plastic bags any more from the stores here, but that lefty craziness is for a different thread). So they are always half out and deep up there, and I rarely find some really tall man on that aisle. So I have to climb up, or go find an employee. Ugh. And I am 5’6”.
