When I started making myself go back to the car and get them, I got MUCH better at remembering them beforehand. I've also taken to putting them back in the car as soon as I've unpacked them, too, since this seemed to be a sticking point in the process as well. :-/leemikceehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00556230429959451810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-4512700761708580062014-01-25T22:22:15.145+00:002014-01-25T22:22:15.145+00:00I have always avoided them as me and any kind of m...I have always avoided them as me and any kind of machine do not get on.

I did try a few when they first appeared but they rarely saved time and always seemed to require some human intervention because of some perceived infraction of the Self-Scanning regulations. I choose a human-staffed check-out every time.MikeHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01530099708429116393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-49443962328077108392014-01-24T17:24:51.215+00:002014-01-24T17:24:51.215+00:00Hello again!

But sometimes I do feel cheated when I go to the self-checkout to save time and then it gets stuck or I have to wait for a manager to come and sort something out and meanwhile the queue for the human-checkout has disappeared and it would have been way quicker to go there.Gone Back Southhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01391620186388562057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-60375753951293573782014-01-24T14:57:46.985+00:002014-01-24T14:57:46.985+00:00Definitely sounds as though its quicker to use the...Definitely sounds as though its quicker to use the *real* checkouts!<br />No one asks me for ID if I buy alcohol!!!!!!!

The self checkouts in my local Tesco are just the same - never work properly, hate that you've brought your own bag, won't let you buy alcohol without someone coming to check.

I think that the checkout supervisor people like them too much - it gives them more opportunity to be rude and sneer at the customers!! xxAmy at love made my homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17111180584250029433noreply@blogger.com
