Same here! I have it all memorized, and unless somebody does something different, it goes:
Cashier: "Hi, how are you?"
Me: "Fine, and you?"
Cashier: "Fine thank you. Find everything alright?"
Me: "Yes, thank you."
Cashier: Plastic ok?"
Me: "No, I have a shopping bag."
Followed by good-bye, have a nice day,etc. Sometimes I wish I didn't have to go through these inanities, but at least they are predictable..
