Until last Saturday, a fortnight's shopping or even a spontaneous purchase at the Center Brügg was always carried out in the same way. Unlock the shopping cart and go to the information desk when the cash card needs to be topped up.
The goods are then purchased. After passing through the checkout, go to the parking lot and unload the "Wägeli". It is then parked again in the same place, locked and taken to the center.
One or usually two bouquets of flowers are selected and expertly put together by the staff. In the meantime, a café macchiato is enjoyed in the Migros restaurant and a small "something" is eaten in peace*.
Then we pay for flowers and the parking fee and leave.
*Yes ... in peace! This used to be possible, but unfortunately not any more, although the Famigros site says: Migrosrestaurant under Culinary family meeting point:

The children have fun in the playground while mom or dad enjoy their coffee in peace and quiet.
End quote.
As the Lillibiggs playground is separated by two thin partitions and is open at the front and top in the middle of the restaurant, two children playing with semolina and their screaming and stomping are enough to put you off having a coffee.
As long as the outside temperatures don't allow it, I will avoid the Migros restaurant and have my snack at Eddie's CafeBar.

the playground should be in a corner. It's not pleasant for me as a mother of three when my children entertain the whole restaurant. Fortunately, there are restaurants where the playground is in a better place. We live in Canton ZH so we are never in the Center Brügg.
"Griessbreimarder" -- nice word for children. You're probably a bit older (60+), aren't you? Maybe you'd be able to enjoy your coffee at home sooner?
Always remember: "Hell is other people".
@TARDIS,
"Well, well, let's get on with it..."

... you're right about the age, as you can see from my threads!

"When the cookie talks, the crumb has a break!" :-)
The screaming knee-jerkers don't even annoy me. After all, it's their job. But the supervisors sometimes...

The Lillibigs playground is right at the back, right next to the emergency exit. You can't hear the noise, but the alarm bell and the emergency exit lights light up. A hell of a spectacle for the children, of course, ...and
@moz: the supervisors laughed and probably thought to themselves, hurrah - their own son had the brilliant idea
Change of scene in the hospital cafeteria : Grandmother, barely able to walk and hard of hearing, is brought into the cafeteria, presumably by her granddaughter. The great-grandchildren are on hand: rough natural stone floor, pushing chairs, a deafening noise. A woman in her 50s feels sick because of the noise, her visiting husband asks the children's mother to stop the exercise. And the reaction: "Gahts no, my sons are allowed to do that, go to their room if they can't stand it".

My mother used to work at the checkout at C. There's a grandma in the line, behind her a mother with a child and then a young man. The child keeps hitting grandma in the legs with the shopping cart. Grandma turns around and asks the mother to do something. Answer: My child is being brought up in an alternative way and is allowed to act out. The young man then takes a jar of liquid honey from the trolley and pours it over his mother's head. She turns around and is about to have a heart attack. The young man smiles and says: "You know, I was brought up in an alternative way too. It must have been twenty years ago, but it's still one of my favorite stories.
