Heh - tell me you've never been a regular supermarket shopper without telling me you've never been a supermarket shopper.

So here's what to fight about:

11 items, because "it's just one more, no one will care."
12 items, same reason, but the 12th item is mismarked and they have to stop everything while another employee goes to the grocery aisle to check the tag.
40 items, but 30 of them are for the same thing - different flavors.
40 items, but 30 of them are for the same thing - same flavor, but the manager says cashiers have to ring each item individually.
25 items, because the express line was empty and the cashier said to c'mon over - and immediately after she starts ringing out the customer, 4 more people get into the express line with only 1-6 items each.
