    Is that a white thing? I do love it, but I don’t know if it has anything to do with my race. It makes it easier for the cashier to tell when one person’s groceries end without having to pay attention to who is putting what on the belt.

      I put one down behind my items just yesterday, and the Black woman behind me thanked me for doing so. So there’s a data point.

        I haven’t lived in a predominantly-white area in over 20 years and I have never been in a situation where someone should have used a divider and didn’t…so I have hundreds of data points to back yours up

      In my country the cashiers will place the divider beforehand if you forget to do it and while the current customer is paying… So yes, the divider is for the cashier not for the customers.
