A grocery store, just like any other public place, has its own etiquette.
Perhaps some of therules are unspokenand not taught in any textbook or at school.
Either way, things like not blocking the pathway for other shoppers seem like common sense.
Unfortunately, not for everyone.
One man shareda storywhere another shopper blocked his way in the aisle three times.
And all three times, she didnt see (or pretended not to see) a problem with it.
Thats when he decided it was time for somepetty revenge that involved both their carts and their latches.

Having self-awareness is a core teaching in etiquette and manners, etiquette expert Suzy Lins tells Bored Panda.
Grocery cart etiquette is simply being aware of how our actions are affecting others in the grocery store.
Lins has some tips on how not to inconvenience other shoppers with your cart.
But misplaced shopping carts arent the only issue that annoys shoppers.
What else shouldnt people do while at the store?
Making a quick call is one thing; Im talking about a long conversation.
The other shoppers do not want to hear your conversation.
Another thing to remember is to honor the code of lines.
Avoid cutting the checkout line in front of other shoppers.
Go to the back of the line and wait your turn.
Youll probably make their day!

90% of the respondents claimed that they get annoyed by shopping carts blocking the aisles.
