Major Grocery Store Removing Self-Checkouts
While this doesn't apply to Weis or Martin's yet, I fear it might be a sign of things to come. While stores are saying its because of face to face contact, I believe they have other reasons. In my opinion it might have more to do with theft, including bad scans, not scanning items, faking weights, and of course coupon fraud. Personally I hate going to a store and they only have 1 or 2 registers open. If they had 1 register open and the other employee on self-checkout you would essentually double or triple the number of registers open. I love going to Martin's and using their EasyScan system. I walk in, scan my card, and get to shopping. When I'm done the only thing I need to do is scan the finish barcode, put in my coupons (the only headache when the slot is full) and pay. Simple Easy Efficient.
