For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.nothing heavy or direct that may make her feel like your a nutter!, just start off with general stuff, comments about how full the supermarket is, or not "Its much quieter here today than normal" kind of thing.
or comment on how abysmal/nice the weather is, the key is to keep it light, friendly and non threatening.

Ask her if the shop sells ice picks .When she say why would you want an ice pick ,just say I wanted speak to you and this was the only thing I coul think of to break the ice She will realiseyou have a sense of humour and realize you would be easy to talk to .Well it beats those cheesy chat up lines you hear about....

So unless you say something other than chit chat you will go on forever!
So yes you will have to get more progressive than weather!, If she knows you as a regular she will probably not feel that uncomfortable with you as opposed to a total stranger. maybe some understated compliments might be nice, " I look forward to coming here!" or "this is the best part of the day"
You will have to overcome the feeling of fear, the worst that happens is you find out she isnt interested, on the plus side you will have broken that barrier! which is a good thing.
It is difficult I know but its part of getting back into the swing, try googling some flirting tips as well.

I'd wait til you are sure you are alone in the shop and then hand her a business card or slip of paper with your mobile number or email address on. Either add or say the 'words 'It would be nice to hear from you'. Maybe don't return to the shop for a few days until she rings. If she doesn't ring, I realise you may be too embarrassed to go back in, but at least you'll have a better idea where you stand. Maybe she'll then slip you her number.
Be confident, that's the first thing so she doesnt just see you as another random customer. (also, it helps if you look good, though i supose you already knew that!)
Just general conversation, if you see her everyday and she sees you every day then maybe say "me again!" she'll see you have a sense of humour and its a good conversation starter. Remeber show your interest in her but add interesting things about yourself into the conversation.
Good Luck!

Ask her what her favourite chocolate is , then you can buy some everyday , tell her you are buying them for someone very special .......
or you could go for the direct route , tell her you would love to put her on the conveyor and take her home ....or perhaps even a drink ....
best of luck , a feint heart never won anything ..Go for it ... you have a 50% chance of her saying yes or no .
