Drabble by Kevin Fagan for June 18, 2019

Come on Ralph, express yourself. Don’t be quiet.

Yeah. Tell her that’s not what Express Lane means. Loud and clear!

You can at least set your stuff down on the counter Ralph. And then say “I haven’t got all day!”

This reminds of a shopping trip from many years ago. There was just one woman ahead of me, but her cart contained enough groceries to feed an army!

This is a limiting rule that has never been enforced.

And can I write a check for $50 over the amount? Let’s see, where did I put that checkbook? Do you have a pen?

Why I try to find a lane that is empty when I go shopping!

These old guys can be a pain….wait! I’M an old guy!

sounds familiar must be Walmart!!!

I would like to EXPRESS your lack of Express lady!

That’s why I go shopping early to avoid crowds!

I don’t think she feels this supermarket is very super.

There’s something to be said about shopping on-line.

Is Madonna singing Express Yourself on the muzak?

Every time I go to the store I end up behind someone with 40 items or 40 coupons, the which are usually examined and/or refused by the checker. So – I use the grocery delivery service which brings it all into the kitchen and sets it on the counter. 99% of the time it works beautifully and I don’t have to stand in line at checkout or haul the groceries home and into the house. Do prefer to buy produce myself. though.

This is cute, but why is he standing next to an empty belt, holding his groceries?

Ga-roan

The joke is it’s the EXPRESS LANE and she is expressing herself…

To steal a line from another comic strip, decades ago: “Some people turn the Express Line into the Snail Trail!”
