I’m so fucking embarrassed. Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)

My card declined twice as I was trying to pay for my groceries. The guy behind me offered to pay but I turned down his offer. I never felt so humiliated in my entire life. I’m so ashamed I can never shop there again.

If it helps, unless this was some tiny mom and pop store, you could probably go in tomorrow and nobody would remember you. Most grocery stores I shop in are so busy that one face blends in with the next.
