My attempt at a quick grocery run turned into a 20-minute puzzle.

I needed to grab milk and bread, so I went to the local market. They had just rearranged every single aisle, and nothing was where it used to be. I spent nearly 20 minutes walking in circles, feeling completely lost. On one hand, maybe the new layout is better for them, but on the other, it sure made a simple task frustrating. Has a store change ever thrown off your whole routine?

Oh man, I feel that. In my experience, they usually put a sign up for a few weeks saying where the big stuff moved to. Maybe they just forgot this time.

Tell me about it! My usual supermarket did that last fall. I went in for peanut butter and cereal, two things I buy every week. I ended up walking past the paper towels three times before I found the new snack aisle. It felt like they sent me on a scavenger hunt without a list. I almost gave up and left empty-handed.

That sounds so annoying. They never think about how it messes with regular customers. Hope they at least put up some signs soon.
