If you are over the age of 7 and have basic computer skills this is not that difficult. Also, and on a more alarming note, why are you worried about getting a boner in the checkout at midnight? Those "US Weekly" mags got ya kinda hot?

Except when the weight thing screws up. But if you know how to do it, you're fine.

the whole point if those self checkouts is to save the company money... one overseer with a centralized control panel for the 6-8 self checkouts does exactly that.

Ive never seen easier females to impress than those that work at supermarkets.

Yup. I don't understand people who have a a full cart of items and still use it. That and people don't know how to use it.

They lose more time that way.

Seriously I want to drop kick people when I go to the self check with like some deodorant, and there's people in front of me with a cart full

. Take that !%%% to the cashiers, then they got the nerve to try and use coupons or what not also

Pretty cool..I put in 5 bucks one time when the total was 3 something..got back a whole 100 dollar bill, but the whole "karma" thing ran through my head.Gave it back..

Makes things quicker for me so I approve.

 

[rocman23]

self-checkout is the business, thats how i get produce for less

 

[eight2one]

i hate going to cashiers.

 

[ittakesalittlebitmore]

Well its better than getting items through a cashier that doesnt give a stuff about your order, manners or anything else

 

[higherground]

It is simple and fast, I think it is the best thing.

Depending on how the lines are I'll always go to self-check if all I have is my CC.

 

[misterp0315]

I let people earn their paycheck by checking me out...unless I'm buying condoms, lube, and alcohol all at once.

Too blatant for my night plans.

Every time you reach into your pocket for money thinking the transaction is coming to an end, another prompt comes up. I dunno if it's like this at your local supermarket but at mine there is even a clerk overseeing the self-checkout stands. I mean, I thought the point was to avoid dealing with the clerks? They're all walking behind me asking me how my day is going. Wasn't supposed to be like this, fam.

One time I went around midnight and they had all the self-checkouts turned off and only the Express Lane open. I was rocking some sweatpants and started feeling really self-conscious standing in line with other people wearing some sweatpants. My whole plan from the jump was to sloth my way through the store and not make eye contact with ANYONE and then use the self-checkout and come outta there feeling good about myself. Man, instead I found myself sandwiched in line with all these party peeps on a Sat. night making senseable purchases like deli sandwiches and premium ales, and there I was with blood rushing to my head holding a quart of almond milk and a box of Kaboom tucked underneath my arm. I had to ask myself if this was really life.

   

 

thats exactly how the self checkout is over here too. Its a good idea but executed badly. The scanner sucks, if anything it takes long since your doing everything yourself and you  have overseekers just waiting for you to mess up. I guess their used to it.

Well that makes sense..I thought it was one person for each..

I prefer it actually, unless I have a lot of stuff. Much faster.

...and there's people in front of me with a cart full

That was me...
