Do you ever or have you gonr barefoot to a supermarket?

Answer 1

No, let's go tomorrow barefoot. There's a first time for everything!

Answer 2

Yes, every time I've been to the store for over ten years. There aren't any No shoes, no shirts, no service signs here; I've never seen one here in the Netherlands nor on my trips to Belgium & Scotland. But even in the US, while it may seem all stores have such signs, that's not the case. In spite of persistent myths, there are NO health laws requiring these signs/rules in the US, and while quite a few stores do have these signs there are also many stores that do not. Nor do insurance companies require or even recommend footwear for customers, and it's not against the law to drive barefoot.

It's not gross, unhealthy or dangerous to go barefoot. While the dirt on the ground seems gross because it's more visible, our skin is made to keep pathogens out and unless you put your feet up or lick your toes you're in very little danger to spread the dirt or catch a disease from it. We're at far greater risk of picking something up through our hands; things touched by many people (shopping carts, railings, doorknobs, money) are covered in germs, not as obviously dirty but they're there, and with our hands we frequently touch our faces, mouth, food, so these germs can enter our body. If you're not worried about shopping gloveless, you certainly shouldn't worry about walking around with bare feet.
Injuries aren't likely either; I've walked around barefoot for ten years, never divert my step no matter how much glass I see and I get a tiny splinter maybe once a year. Never had a cut, never had the smallest splinter indoors.
When you go barefoot a lot, feet quickly get a lot tougher than most people think, and they're fully washable.

Answer 3

I have been going completely Barefoot for 26 years now, since I was 16 years old. I go everywhere and into all stores
in my Bare Feet, including Supermarkets. When and if any
store personell have a problem with my Bare Feet, I just take my business elsewhere, but these occasions have been extremely rare, even with the presence of "No Bare Feet" signs.

Answer 4

Most places I know of - No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service. So, No, I've never been barefoot in a supermarket. I wouldn't want to walk in the parking lot barefoot. Man, some of those places can get kinda nasty, especially in the summer.

Answer 5

Yay! All the time. Going barefoot in the supermarket is a summer ritual. Love walking across the hot asphalt in the parking lot and then feeling the cool tiles under my bare soles....

Answer 6

oh, yea, and didn't think a thing about it. That is such a funny question. I haven't done it in years though. I realize a supermarket is a super funky dirty place.(I worked in one).I would if I had too, though! I don't wear shoes very often in my house. My Mom didn't either. We are barefoot kind of people.

Answer 7

When I lived at the beach I went barefootted everywhere.
Everyone else did too-so no one said anything. Boy-I loved living there.

Answer 8

I think I might have gone to a supermarket in my slippers. I know for sure that I went to a restaurant in my slippers before.

Answer 9

I always shoes, my feet are too sensitive to go barefoot outside.

Answer 10

We did when I was a kid. You would walk all the way on the burning pavement and the you would go into the cool store. Then, they banned it. I wouldn't do it as an adult even if it was 'legal'.
