Clean-up on Aisle Seven!!

So, I am pretty sure if I ever have "road rage" it will be not on the road, but at Wal-mart!  I swear, I think someone radio's ahead and tells people to stop and visit in front of every last thing I am going for!  I too have stopped to chat with someone along the aisle, but I try to be conscious of people coming up behind me and move out of the way if it appears they want something I am standing in front of.  I have tried standing there staring at the people, saying, "Excuse Me" and a host of other things to get people to move.  The best are the label-readers.  They park their cart on one side of the aisle and then go and stand on the other side to read the label of whatever they are buying.  Just get it, for Pete's sake!  I have to admit, when I go there, I am usually on a dead run because I have such little time to grocery shop, but even when I stop to browse a section, I am only in that spot for maybe 30-45 seconds.  These people have stood there for 5 minutes!  And what's with the motorized wheel chair carts?  Those people stop diagonally in the middle of the aisle, so you can't go on either side of them! And I don't know about other areas, but at our Wal-Mart the people using the store's wheel chairs don't exactly look handicapped.  Since I have reached "middle age", I don't sleep well, and I have found the best time to go is about 6:30 in the morning.  There is no one to go around and no lines at the check-out!!
