We don't have Trader Joe's in my neck of the woods so I'm so curious, is this actually a thing that their cashiers are trained to do? Give commentary on clients' purchases? I'd hate that so much. I don't want to know what the cashier's thinking as a buy a 6-pack of beer, chips, and veggie chik'n nuggets at 9:47pm on a Tuesday.

(As for perceiving giant piles of clutter as furniture after some time, I'm glad to let you know you're not alone. I have a pile of scarves and gloves that has become an art piece in my bedroom.)

It’s really more of them commenting on individual items that they like or are new. Think, “oh man, have you tried these chick’n nuggets yet? We just got them in a flavor and I’m so addicted.”

Now… if they commented on entire purchases I would probably have died of embarrassment in the Trader Joe’s line fifteen times over. (Yes, this cheese is all for me and no, I am not throwing a party.)

Also: your glove-scarf masterpiece brings peace to me and also my one ski glove that permanently lives next to my clothes hamper. Thank you for sharing.
