    Never understood that argument. I want to be in and out as quickly as possible. Self checkout makes that happen.

      I’ll be honest, going with the people that get paid to do it is way faster for bigger buys

        I’ve found that I scan quicker than most of the people who are paid to the job.

        Sometimes… I’ve had lots of bad experiences with super slow checkout people. I would say most of the time, they were boomers themselves and spent half the time trying to make chit-chat.

        That being said, I will still line up for a staffed checkout if I have a cart full because it is easier since I can bag and put in the cart as they’re scanning. But also, many of the self checkouts here have a limit of like 10-20 items posted.
