Emoticon  So true!!! I've actually only used one once in my life... And that's because it was a horrible experience not unlike what he described!! Besides, I like to keep the youngsters employed. DD's first job was as a checker at HEB!! 4951

Fallon, That's not our job. I tried once and ended up scanning one item about 4 times thinking I didn't scan it but it had. I called a cashier over to help me and she acted so perturbed. So I left mine too. Never tried it again. 4951

I use the self check-out often, but only if I have a few items and know that none of those items should cause any issues. I usually don't have any problems but I also use to be a professional checker back in high school working at Randall's so I guess I have a bit of an advantage. 4951

There is a place for both. Love self checkout but never have more than a couple items. Also, never get behind some Luddite trying to pay by check. 4951

My wife only uses the self-checkout when she only picks up a few items.  For regular grocery shopping, she uses the regular checkout line. 4951

Self checkout always has a technical issue that requires a checker to assist anyway. I'd rather just endure the fake convo in the express line. 4951

@ET: Just trying to save some jobs. If the stores go to self-checkout, then think of all of the displaced checkers, as a result.

@donnatella: they can always send them out into the lot to pick up carts.

@BooBear: Then what about the sackers? They also collect carts. The displaced checkers will take their job.

I hate them. Something always goes crazy and I end up needed the worker to put in their code. Today at Kroger they kept trying to get me to go to one since I didn't have many items. No thank you, I'll wait in a checkout line. 4951
