Also sometimes when the cashiers ask, it may be part of their stores
policy to chat with the customer while they get rung up. I believe
the whole idea of that is to put a positive impression upon a person's
shopping trip, most of the time the cashier does not really care what
you are buying , they just want to get thru your stuff quickly (well
usually :^) and get on to the next person.
