Do you organize the order of your groceries in the checkout line? (lemmy.world)

I'm just wondering what the title asks: do you organize your groceries in the order you will check them out, if doing self-checkout, or arrange them on the belt/counter in a standard checkout line, in the hope that they'll be bagged in a specific way?

I didn't know there was any other way people do it, but just learned some people prefer to checkout/bag without pre-arranging things. I'm kind of curious to see what's more common, or if there's some other options I haven't considered?

my mother was always weird about putting all the same items together on the conveyor belt, as if not doing it were some incredibly rude faux pas.

there's no way it possibly makes any difference to anybody. I do try to make sure that the crushable items go last however
