    I have two hands. One is occupied by my wallet that I just took the cash out of. The other is occupied by the change that was just handed back to me. Which hand am I supposed to push the cart or carry my stuff with? Just be patient for a moment.

      I put my wallet away, grab my stuff with one hand, then take the change with the other hand & stuff it into a pocket. Then I sort my stuff when I get in my car.

      You could put your wallet away while the cashier is putting your cash in the drawer and getting your change out. However, if you’re at one of the longer lines that has the conveyor belt it’s unlikely you’d be holding up anyone behind you because they’re not likely to be ready to check out in the short period of time it would take to put your change away, and it’s not like putting your change away is going to stop the cashier from starting to scan the next person’s items.

      And that’s not even with a kid. Try pushing a trolley, holding a kid, and putting your change away. I tried an palm scanner recently at the grocery but felt like OP as I scanned it several times and it never was able to recognize my palm as a palm.
