The store I frequent the most has them, but it's really hard to checkout if you have a whole cart full because they don't have much room on the bag thing.Aunt Juiceboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09312942310632639442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7670512488001349318.post-38769998549694863352010-04-26T11:19:54.243-06:002010-04-26T11:19:54.243-06:00One more reason I don't do the self checkout l...One more reason I don't do the self checkout lane.

Right down to the designated puncher.<br /><br />And just to be sure the designated puncher keeps busy, s/he should also have to keep an eye on the cashiered "express lane" and punch anyone who goes over 20 items.<br /><br />I recently got caught behind a lady who had 100 kool-aid packets, but went through the express lane. Just because you can carry all your items in your hands does NOT grant you immediate access to the express lane. <br /><br />I sighed and tapped my foot and rolled my eyes as best I could, but a PUNCH would have been so much more satisfying.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02571149055152186880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7670512488001349318.post-91520983910386884852010-04-26T08:03:11.141-06:002010-04-26T08:03:11.141-06:00Sometimes those checkout people aren't doing t...Sometimes those checkout people aren't doing their jobs. For example, in college, my boyfriend and I were at Shopper's Drug Mart while one of those checkout people was on the phone talking about their weekend at the bar. They could see us standing there and still kept on with their very "deep and intense" conversation. We started running our stuff over the scanner on our own. That appeared to get their attention. <br /><br />Self Checkout.

I do most of my grocery shopping at two local stores, and just one has them - and it's constantly calling for a clerk to assist when I don't need assistance, telling me to place an item on the scanner or in the bag when I've already done so, and god forbid you forget to write down a bulk foods code (which they don't tell you that you need when you are scooping them into bags.) You can look up everything else on that fucking screen except the bulk foods!Riot Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02725825736285347870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7670512488001349318.post-31714686106554417412010-04-25T21:21:00.577-06:002010-04-25T21:21:00.577-06:00Perfect!

Then you stop at the self checkout, scan the barcode and the computer retrieves everything you scanned through the store. Then you pay. Everything is already in your cart and bagged because you did it as you went. It's awesome! Makes shopping fast, easy and painless. Best of all I don't have to deal with any cranky cashiers.
