For a small group of people, they consider it their solace and escape -- an excuse to be without the kids (ideally), their partner, just a chance to have some alone time and a bit of sanity they may not otherwise.

For most everyone else, it's absolute busy work, from walking through every drawer, cabinet, and closet, along with the fridge and freezer and creating a list, to lugging countless bags back inside and put the contents inside away until the following week's trip.

Grocery shopping is a small slice of torture for most people.

For even the quickest shoppers, who can be a bit of a hurricane inside the grocery store and act like they're being timed in the Daytona 500, it doesn't mean that it doesn't come with extreme annoyances.

People walking in the middle of the aisle, blocking the entire area while also walking extremely slowly. Realizing the brand of product you were going to get because of a coupon isn't the cheapest option, so logging back into the app to compare prices.

And, of course, we can't leave out the absolute sucknuggets that leave their shopping carts inches away from the cart return, free to catch a gust of wind and roll across the parking lot at a decent amount of speed, only stopped by whichever vehicle it collides into.

Plus, countless more.

So, without any further adieu, here are 20 massive annoyances while grocery shopping according to you/New Englanders. (And these are in somewhat in order from least annoying to most annoying. Sort of.)
