I had the same happen. I asked the cashier if we were on Candid Camera.
I had half a cart still to empty and he was unloading willy nilly. I moved his paper plates and dishsoap into my pile and bought them. The cashier was smiling beyond belief. The divider thing did not matter because I had a way to go. Belt totally full of his stuff and I was just handing items to the cashier from my cart.
