Where do you shop for groceries?

For me we use Walmart or Giant. As of late I keep reading news articles about Walmart making self checkout lanes 15 items or less. The Walmart I used to work at removed the majority of registers and relies on self checkout.

On the grocery side of the store are at least 15 self checkouts designed for handling big amounts of items.

I don't think these articles are for every store tho either, just the ones with theft problems. But the people writing these stories need to be a lot clearer in their writings, because they're making it sound as if changes to self checkout affects every single store and it doesn't.

They need to ban self check outs or pay the customers 15 bucks an hour to do employees job

@HumanEarth problem is, it only takes about 10 minutes to check out. It would only equal about $2.50 for your check out work.

I hate them things. I rather see people working and not have a store exploiting free labor from their customers
@HumanEarth If you spend an hour scanning and packing your groceries... I wouldn't want to be paying your bill...

Just think the free ride that store is getting. They get rid of employees because of them and thats less jobs for a human
