The downside is forcing a bunch of people through self checkout who need a cashier. Whenever you all talk about how great self checkout is, I wonder what mecca you live in. My only experiences with it are long lines and long waits caused by a number of factors:

-Many self checkout lanes closed because they think everyone is stealing and refuse to staff more than one person to watch over you

-Old people who can't use technology and don't want to be using the machines

-People who have entire carts and struggle to effectively scan their groceries on the tiny space allocated.

-Machines that scan painfully and artificially slow because they want to weigh every goddamn item to prove you aren't stealing

-Machines that record you and yell at you for stealing if you move an item slightly awkwardly

I think You've only ever heard of a self checkout, not really seen one in real life.

Huh? I don't understand this comment. Are you saying you think I'm lying? Lol. I mean more power to you if you've never experienced these self checkout logjams. I'm fine with them in concept, but the way a lot of the stores I've experienced use them makes it kinda unpleasant. Guess it's regional.
