What would you think if this happened to you? I walked into famous footwear today, it being tax free weekend it was packed. I couldnt tell where the line began it actually looked like everyone was still shopping so I just got behind the person that was paying, I was there for about a minute and then this lady taps me on the shoulder and says "um, excuse me theres a line." I turn around and theres probably a line of about 50 to 100 people. I automatically felt embaressed its one thing to cut one person but to cut 100 is a different story, I apologized and then walked out of the store embaressed. What would you be thinking if you were one of the people in the line, I want honest answers!

At first I would be pissed at you just like when for example theres a really long line and you are like next in line and suddenly another line opens up and the person who just got there ends up first in line. That SUCKS!! But in your case since you apologized I think most people would assume you just didn't realize there was a line. And when you left they probably figured you were irritated because not only had you already been waiting a couple mins but now even more people were in line that actually came up after you. I wouldn't worry about it too much. It happens all the time. Just a tip if you are at Walmart or a store with several checkout I like to go to the liquor department or jewlry department and check out there. Much much faster. ;) ]
If I'd been in the line, I'd have figured you made a simple mistake that anyone could have done, and then given it no further thought. ]
I probably wouldn't have cared too much; stores should mark off where lines start for busy events like tax-free weekends (unless it's clear where lines are, like a supermarket). I probably would have told you there was a line and left it at that.
It's not really a big deal, I wouldn't have left the store over it, but I would have been slightly embarrassed and walked to the end of the line. Seeing as there was fifty people between the person I just accidentally cut and the end of the line, there would have been no further confrontation.
