Subjects to talk about? The weather (hot, isn't it), some local issue, do you like your job, what are your plans, ... Ask her for some info or judgment, eg, do you like X where X is something you like, eg, cereal, beef, a drink, etc. Work up to asking about an activity you like, like, Do you like cycling, football, ... - find some interest you share, then ask her to share it sometime.

Yes do NOT write it on a piece of paper, that would be creepy. If you are trying to hit on the girl ringing up your groceries its going to be tough... Trying to ask someone on a date while they are working is tricky, especially since you are a customer she cant exactly show her true personality I would assume.Like the other compacmaniac said, build up a conversation. What is important is that it gives her some comfort. Unlike what compacmaniac said dont try and do this over a period of time, if you are going to do it, you need to do it and not draw it out. So, if you know absolutely nothing about her, other than that she rings your groceries, talk to her about that."You know I used to work at the grocery down the street, it was a frustrating job, having to deal with all these crazy people all day"... etc etc. Make her smile, make her feel comfort, and whatever you do, do not just ask her our without starting some kind of opener event. If at the end of the conversation you say, hey wanna go to red lobster, without mentioning anything about red lobster before she will probably say no, even if you made her smile and gave her some comfort. So, in the middle of your conversation throw something in like, "yea red lobster actually is having a eat-a-thon this weekend with some lobsters that were bought from this grocery!"... See what I mean? Then cut to another story, and then back to the red lobster and ask her to go.You have probably less than 5 minutes to do it, so make it quick, make it good, and make it to the point.Peace

 well handing out your number to the girl would seem too desperate!!just start talkin to her casually and ask her if she comes here often..if she says yes then take it slow,u can ask her out the next time u see her..if no then ask her directly if she wants to meet at some other place than the boring old grocery store lol..be bold hun thats the only way here!!!
