Nope, I’ll wait for a worker
As far as I remember, self-checkout machines work with receipts, and you can check what you spent your money on. If we talk about payroll, the law on commerce has long been out, which says that even such cash registers are connected to the general budget system. And you can check all your purchases online by entering a billing code. I often use [heydiscount.co.uk] and find it a nice addition to my discounts. However, not all self-checkout machines can issue a check. It is the service provider`s problem, ATMs and terminals.
I do. I hate how anyone else bags my groceries and I feel like a jerk shooing away the bagger, so I do it myself.
Probably people once said the same thing about ATMs.
Well, I find that they are very convenient.
And I use them for my grocery shopping.
I almost always do if they are available.. Faster then the average checkout line and I pack my own bags (the way I want them). I always take my own canvas bags, as well.
@Sheannutt I usually remember mine. I also do a lot of my shopping at Aldi and they don't have automated machines, but the tellers are really quick. I still have to pack my own bags though.
@Sheannutt We have a Whole Foods here as well, but here it's an upper-class grocery store. And I believe Whole Foods sold out to ...?
Around here, one is almost forced to use them as often there is only one manned checkout open.
I would NEVER, NEVER use self checking, hell I don't really care for self serve gasoline.
I use them. I generally don’t like people, so they attract me. There are usually 6 or more registers, so even if you’re behind a dozen idiots, it kind of moves quickly. There is apparently still the ideation in the generally population that they are express orientated, so the people buying cart fulls of product usually go to the full service lines, so they aren’t in my way. I like to pack my own product. I use fewer resources and can pack bags to suit my logistical needs. The only thing missing is my do-it-yourself discount. This is situation extremely similar to the phasing out of the full-service gas station.
Oh, I forgot to mention, I can run a cash register better than most cashiers employed today.
I do.
They are especially useful when I am:
I also use online shopping.
Every new technology kills jobs. Change is constant, we need to find a better way to address it than trying to inhibit it's use due to social upheaval.
