A few years ago Target changed their self checkout machines to be less infuriating. It doesn't yell at you to place your item in the bagging area and then yell at you for putting an unexpected item in the bagging area. It lets you scan items as fast as you want. When I use some other store's self checkout machines it's a serious step backwards.

I’ve noticed the same thing with Walmart in Canada. It’s not a bad experience now.

Although scanning each item individually is still time consuming. Removing that requirement would be awesome.
