My biggest problem is that they don't always scan the right price of products where Coles put a big fluro sticker that says "reduced to" and then a figure written in pen. Otherwise they're fine.

I'm just waiting for the day when you walk your trolley through an airport style metal detector that scans everything in seconds.

In that event you walk it to the front counter and tell them it scanned above the ticketed price. First one free, all subsequent items at the discount price.

I bagged a 400 pack of fish oil for free doing that. :lol:

Self Check Out is available in the city. Normally I use them, depending on que lines. Sometimes its easier to just to go to a normal check out.

Over here they expect you to bag the goods yourself, all they do is sit there and scan, and it costs the same whichever checkout you use. I'm paying anyway, so they can scan it for me.

Bagging your own groceries was part of the Franklins 'no frills' brand offering. A lot of people liked it. They didn't have to worry about the checkout chick doing silly things like overloading bags or plonking juice cartons on top of their eggs.





One thing that utterly shits me with the woolies self checkout is the red/green light. Like, f**k off, i'm lifting the bag off and that's final. :x It's not enough to turn me off the concept though. Just the thought that i'm keeping someone out of work scanning my own groceries makes me feel good all over.

They make good ATM's if you only want to get charged EFTPOS charges.

So at the moment it's convenience over employment. But don't rule any of your mothers out - I haven't.
