The store also decides HOW to participate.

It's the same way at most stores that accept coupons. One per transaction. You can have multiple transactions, but if it's busy, the polite thing to do is exactly what you suggested - complete one, then to to the end of the line and wait your turn for the next one.

Or you can have two people in line, each with his/her own transaction. Or, you can go somewhere else to eat.

Reminds me of the guy who was ahead of me at Subway a month ago, who said he wanted more cheese on his toasted sub, that what they gave him wasn't enough. So they complied, and when they charged him extra he said "oh I'm not paying extra, I wanted more cheese because what you put on there MELTED."

Well DOH. It was put in an oven. Cheese melts. They put on the exact same amount of cheese on that sub that they would've put on if you hadn't toasted it. And the sign on the wall says extra cheese costs extra.

He argued for almost ten minutes, holding up the line. All because he couldn't stand the idea that he wasn't going to get free extra cheese that everyone else had to pay for.

it's @ that point i step forward, dig into my pocket & give the clerk the xtra $1 to keep the line moving. true that
