The Grocery Store

Thursday evening, Aaron and Julia went shopping at a local grocery store. They often use a push cart because it is easier to get groceries - pulling a cart is harder than pushing a cart. Unfortunately though, Julia wasn't watching the front of the cart and accidentally bumped into Aaron. He was alright but made a point of keeping a distance from Julia.

When placing objects into the cart, both Aaron and Julia are careful to keep their backs straight, and not to move food items too quickly. Furthermore, they will move their feet so that they don't twist their backs when getting food.

After they get the groceries and are at the car, Aaron and Julia carefully place the food into the car - they make sure: their feet are comfortably apart, their backs are straight and that they place the objects on the back seat so that they don't have to bend over to get the groceries.
