They're great for shy teens buying condoms or husbands buying tampons for their wives. Other than that, it's worse service for the same price.

I always use the self checkout at my grocery store because its just faster than waiting in line.

They recently added a way for people to just use an app to scan barcodes while shopping and then just scan your phone at the self checkout but I haven't tried it.
