• When you take your families to the check-out line after shopping, please let them know they are not able to leave the register to get additional items. This causes back-up of the registers. Have them be sure of what they choose/and know how much has been spent so they do not cause a delay. 
• Once families clear the cashier line, they will be directed to the book and shoe tables where they look for team members wearing blue t-shirts. 
• Do not stay in the check out line with a family. Please get back in line to be paired with another family.
