Nah, you wanna do the opposite so they think you're desperate for the job. Shows you have passion and desire :)

Better yet, wear nothing at all. That should impress them.

so long as your not an ass and dont smell you should be good. i wouldnt worry too hard. they probably arent expecting you to wear a tie or any sort of bussiness wear. just nothing profane on your clothing and youll be ok.

Dress nicely, keep smiling, and always tell the truth. If you're asked to describe a negative aspect about you, always see to it the you add a positive aspect that will debunk the negative one

Now, I applied for two jobs but one of the jobs was taken down does that mean enough applicants applied or is that job taken?

You're applying for a stock clerk position. Just walk in and start stacking stuff. Then walk over and pimp slap the manager. He'll be so impressed with your moxie he'll promote you to body guard.

Grocery store eh? What's your favourite vegatable and why?

Prepare yourself for the worst-case scenario.

...Incidentally, the answer is 'potato'

If you happen to see a picture of the interviewer's family on their desk do not comment on how hot you think they are or what you would do to them.

Well, I had my interview and it went well. Now I just have to wait for a phone call for a second interview with the department manager.
