I often use self service tills either if there are long queues or I only have a few items. I find they're really efficient and I never have any problems using them...

I've noticed how fast the aldi checkout is compared to other supermarkets.

I usually use them if I only have a few things to pay for.

That's why it's a bagging area and not a purse area.

Honestly Ammi, it's like you want to watch the world burn.

No, I never use self-service checkouts. I already have a job. If I'm spending money in the supermarket I at least want someone to check it out for me. If everyone uses the self-service checkouts pretty soon the supermarkets won't have to pay anyone to do the job, lots more people - women mostly - will be out of work and the supermarkets will be pocketing even more of my money in profit.

In our supermarkets they have someone directing you to the self service.

They do in my local Morrisons, and they've shifted the 'basket only' till to the far end of the shop, but I'm determined and I always tell them no, I already have a job - but you won't soon if you keep encouraging people to do you job for free.

i like them but there is one terrible fatal flaw which is when you scan you want to put down in the bag or bag area but oh no. they design it where you cant do that you have to place it on the tiny section away from where you need it. which makes it say unepected item in baggage area,, which then makes you mess up and have to call for help.

so stupid. and annoying everytime i use it plus its low built for hobbits but i still use as i like to get in and out fast as i can just ask any girl that lol
