I've devised a new tactic. When somebody in line in front of you
has more than 10 items, I just cut in front of them, look back at
them and point to the sign, and say, "This lane is for people with
10 items or less".

And since that worked so well, loookie he the next person in
front of me has about 14 items, so lets do that again... Worked
again [evil stare].

And then the next person in front of me already had her stuff on the
conveyer. She was apparently watching this, counts her stuff, then
looks at me and asks if I'd like to go in front of her, too. I
said, "Nah - I don't want to press my luck."

I'm going to do that more often. Since the stores won't enforce
these policies, then it's up to the customers.

What's interesting to note is that both people I cut in front of
went to other lines after being called on it. It'll be interesting
to see how many people do that, and how many will stand there in
back of me mumbling obscenities. And how many follow me home and
come back later that night with automatic weapons.
