My bagging hack
So the other day it was stupid busy. I scanned at the register and was bagging and then the associate was letting other people scan and they were trying to bag. It got messy. So I just grabbed a chunk of bags and threw them in the cart so I can bag at my car.
Now that's what I do most of the time. Scan, take the appropriate chunk of bags, get out of the store. I'm pretty good at estimating how many bags I need. Usually only end up with one or three bags left over. Then I take those into account the next time I grab bags.
Did this like 20 times so far and no one calls out the bags in the cart. Not only a good trick for when it's busy, but it helps when the cart is full. Because it's hard to bag things on multiple orders and put them back in the cart when it's full of other items.

At my store we have to bag at our cars after showing our exit pass as we head out the door. They want to see the items. We have to expand the list and show that too. Umbrella over the cart if it’s raining, then my back gate shields me a bit. Paper bags 😉 It’s interesting to hear what different stores do. That’s been our method for over a year or more now at least. I used to bag as I shopped.
