A.T. Hagan :
I dislike self-checkouts and will avoid them whenever possible.
Everything becomes more and more self-service but you never get a discount for doing their job for them.
My discount is the 10 minutes I saved by not standing in another lane
I LOVE them when I'm just checking out a few items. They tend to be so much quicker than the cashier lanes. I won't use them if I have more than about 6 items or if I have much produce though.
