as i said, not a supermarket boffin, but freezer aisles and booze aisles are narrower, they have less usage, wow life must be different in Wales freezer & booze are very popular here in England
Maybe booze is less popular in Wales due to minimum pricing. Often I could do a round trip into England, buy a bulk of 10 one litre bottles of scotch and save £30.

Posted on 11/01/2021 18:48 byOur local coop is like that, ends blocked and you would have to walk 4 aisles to get bread. But they are short aisles. I was in there a few weeks ago for as stamp and to weigh a parcel.
Haven't seen anyone without a mask since they were brought in. I I exclude a few who walked into the foyer in the early days and were reminded having forgotten to don it. They complied straight away ..... as did I when I forgot to take it out of my pocket

That is why one way aisles in small shops doesn't work. Much better, like Easy T's method, to enter the wrong way if no one will reach you before you have picked up your item.
When we did shop in supermarkets, especially ones we were not familiar with, whilst looking up looking for a product we frequently missed seeing the arrows on the floor.
