I love self checkout.
Except I'm torn between two thoughts....
First i think they are just great because it gets me out of the store faster.
But on the other hand, by me checking myself out, i'm literally doing someone elses job. The store is making money by me checking myself out because they don't have to pay some kid to do it for me. So shouldn't I save a few bucks on my groceries for doing the work for them? Or is getting out of there faster the reward in itself? If it's the latter, eventually that's going to change when ALL checkouts are self check. When gas stations used to give you the choice to pump yourself or full serve, it was cheaper to self pump. Now most gas stations are self pump only.
