I can't remember the last grocery store that I went into that had someone other than the customer bagging their groceries. Service, or lack thereof, is not the problem withthe self service checkouts.

The only real problem with the self service checkouts is that the technology can be a little flakey, and it's embarassing having the maching beep at you telling you you put something in your bag that you didn't scan, when I did scan it.

And if you have a lot of groceries, it can be inconvenient as well. (I tend to grocery shop monthy or less, so I'll buy a lot at once) You at that point, have to stop scanning, and bag your stuff, then scan more, and bag more-- it's a little frustrating.

But for one or two items -- the self scanners are fine.
