Question by Kaci: Should I include unrelated hobbies on a job application?

I'm filling out an application for a job at a grocery store, so nothing fancy. But my hobbies are things like playing piano and sports. Is that what they're looking for, or do they want job-related hobbies? I don't bag food in my free time, so I can't imagine that's what they're looking for. This would be my first job, so any other tips are appreciated. Thanks...
I meant the application isn't fancy, not the job. I'm not stuck-up. I'll be grateful for any job.

They want to know about what you do in your spare time, so put whatever. They're just looking to make sure you have personality and you're not a lazy slob. Also, put any clubs or school activities you do, and especially any leadership positions you hold.
