That makes you no better than a welfare queen who rings 3 baskets full of stuff to a register.

As they should. People like you who haul their full buggy to the self-checkout and slowly scan can go diaf.

Are you also mystified by ATMs? Always amazes me that there are still people out there that have a hard time just following directions.

My wife is from Rhode Island- she calls the cart “buggy”
They also call water fountains “bubblers”

Real talk, there should be a discount associated with self checkouts.

Stores barely staff their checkout lines at this point, so if customers are saving you that manpower they should have some incentive.

Also, what in the frick, you want me to utilize self checkout, yet need an associate after every 5 item scans as the weights aren’t matching up.

I don't even think walmart requires you to put the items in the bagging area anymore.

So I started to take my sweet arse time. Sorry, but I won’t feel pressured to ring myself up quickly at a place I don’t work at. Should hire more employees to make shopping a more enjoyable experience


So, you frick over other shoppers, like yourself, because you are throwing a tantrum towards the store? That makes toootal sense. Idiot.

The ones at our Wal Marts are phenomenal, always have someone there to let you get your beer and liquor. Plenty of open stations usually.

Now, I doubt I ever go to the self checkout with 30 items, the. bagging situation sucks.

One of our female friends works the self-checkout at the local Walmart, four registers at once, and the theft is astronomical.

I can't believe actual employees at registers wouldn't save money.
