It may seem weird but I actually enjoy checking out items at the store myself. I am able to keep track of any errors and address them before I actually pay. And I bag things the way I want to. Plus, it can save me time, though...

Love it when I'm at Walmart and go to check out.I walk past that long line at the self-checkout and get behind 2 people ahead of me in a Human cashier line. I want to wave at the people still in line at the self checkout as I...

We go to a grocery store that charges a 10% fee at the checkout. Groceries are supposedly marked at the price the store buys them (??) and they add the 10% to cover costs. So if I go through the self check out, I think they...

I saw an article today saying the US House was close to passing a $15-an-hour minimum wage law. This is mostly symbolic since the GOP led Senate will never agree to such an increase.
One of the consequences of such a law being...

Here the self checkout is available in the supermarket and I like it. As usually no more customers use it and it is faster for me to checkout in this way. It is quite convenient.
But sometimes I still have to pay in the...

Self-checkout registers at the supermarket are meant for those that don't have too many items - usually 12 items or less.
Apparently there are people who don't care about that and think this doesn't apply to them.

The Scan & Go idea is great to some, while to others it strikes a nerve.
As humans are replaced in what businesses claim is an effort to save consumers money, some of those humans will not be able to find jobs.

I LOVE self checkout. I'm not sure why, but when I am shopping at a store with self checkout, I always use it, even if I have to wait in line! I feel like I'm moving faster and am more in charge, and scanning coupons myself always...

I don't care for the automated self-checkout. I will do it if the lines are long and I only have a handfull of items. But about half the time I have to have help with something, so it's not really saving me that much time I don't...
