It’s reasonable to have a store provide a service where an employee processes the customer’s items to check for damage, verify prices, and bag them intelligently.

But it’s not worth the risk of getting the wrong chatty cashier.

No, I’ll roll the dice and scan them myself. If I hit an “unexpected item in bagging area” error that requires someone to come over and help me, I can always burn down the store and run away and try again somewhere else.

I go at my own pace since I'm doing their job essentially. It's their fault they didn't put enough self-checkout lanes. It gives me time to bag and organize everything logically before returning to my vehicle. If they wanted speed they should either hire more cashiers or build more self-checkout.

Nope, I gotta price match. I will wait for the cashier.

Then just wait in line.

But there's also a line for self checkout.

its funny at one regional market here, the cashiers are fed up with people being stupid and neet help or are even stealing. so sadly its disabled most of the time. at a different place, there keeps being a loooong line, but literaly noone uses the self checkout. it is so useful. if i forgot something or just gotta get coffee beans, i quickly swing by that place because i know no matter how busy it is, i dont have to wait in line xD

A local grocery store had self check out lanes and removed them and replaced them with 5 express check outs. I feel conflicted about it.
