Who Moved My F$#*@($! Cheese?!?!
May. 31st, 2012 10:37 amIn this case, that's a literal question. I've been going to the same grocery store for a decade, and I've memorized where things are, or at least "where things I buy are." For various reasons, including but not limited to tore-up kitchen and being out of town, I haven't gone there for a month or so.
Now I return to find that they are remodeling. People, I spent a decade learning this store. Don't move it now!
I suspect that at least one move is driven by the store's suppliers. See, it used to be that Coke and Pepsi were on shelves facing each other. Since I drink the diet versions of either, I'd buy whichever was on sale that week. Now, Coke is on one shelf, and you need to walk behind that shelf (past an increased selection of store-brand stuff) and over to the next aisle for Pepsi. Aha, I say, aha!
