Often made all the worse by the fact that there’s no good spot to place your trolley — leaving you to decide between either blocking the thoroughfare, hindering your own ease of access, or taking up the space of two checkouts.
Just saw a guy stack an entire big trolley worth of shopping into the self-serve bagging area and I am honestly in AWE of this dude’s commitment to avoiding in-store social interaction

And yes, I hear those of you who might argue: “Self-serve should be reserved only for those with 12 items or less in a grocery basket!” To you lot, I say: How the hell do I fit a 25-pack of toilet roll into a cheeky little basket, alongside my other pantry goods?
But holier days are now upon us, my friends, because one Aussie shopper has discovered exactly where your trolley belongs — and watching it slot right on in there is just about the most satisfying thing I’ve witnessed this week.
Full disclosure: As far as I can tell, this only works seamlessly with one of those mini trolleys and a checkout at Coles or Woolies — I can’t guarantee it would work at your local. BUT JUST WATCH HOW SMOOTHLY SHE GLIDES IN.
In the comments, Aussies were either elated to have stumbled upon this brand new information — or predictably snooty over the fact that this was old news to them.
While over on Twitter, users seemed equally enthralled by the discovery at their own supermarkets:
This has to be one of the most useful things I’ve seen in awhile! The small supermarket trolley fits at the self serve checkout. How many of you knew this?
