@zero_gravitas @MorpheusB I noticed “The Aldi near us recently added self serve checkouts.” If my Aldi did that, I’d definitely shop there. Mine has the slowest checkouts in the world (tested by monkeys) and tries to make me late for my bus. It’s not unknown for me to dump my stuff and walk out.
@treleanor @zero_gravitas I do not like the self-serve checkouts. Prefer human.
@MorpheusB @zero_gravitas I generally prefer human-served checkouts. But Aldi closest to me, in busy shopping centre, has the worst checkouts I’ve encountered anywhere. So slow. Plus when you’re in a queue, an announcement will come, “Checkout number whatever is closing, go to another,” and everyone shuffles over and enrages people in that queue. My blood pressure is quite high enough without that.
