Also, you can tell them to stop running up and down the aisles annoying people, to please try to be a bit quieter and stop yelling about everything, to stop hitting their sister / brother, that no they can’t have chocolate-sugar bombs for breakfast lunch and dinner, or the donuts, or the 15 boxes of cookies, or…

Taking kids to the grocery store is the height of annoying haha
