Self-service checkouts

(1/1)

Banjo:
As far as I know Sainsbury was the first to go down this route where you scan in your shopping and do the payment yourself.
Now it seems B&Q have also decided to install self-service (no service more like) checkouts. They have one normal checkout with an operator and then a few members of staff top "help" when the self-service ones go wrong which they do all the time.

No one I have spoken to likes them and I no longer shop in Sainsburys as a result.  If the queue is too long at the one manned till then just leave your trolley full of shopping and walk out.  They will soon get the message!

Philofacts:
I hate these too.
I am not paid by the supermarket to do their employees' job for them.

Thank heavens for Waitrose.

The Prophet:
Ah Waitrose, home of child-free shopping.

Fred:
I hate self-service checkouts and dont shop at stores that have them!
