You haven't used american self checkout machines yet then!

"Unidentified item in the bagging area!"

"Please place item in the bagging area!"

How would you like to pay? Pick credit card Please complete purchase on separate device to the right.

Do people really love even those voice / flow of these machines?

I've used amazon go. It is as far as I can tell very low friction. I'm not 100% sure how they figured out what I got but it was correct in my case.

I had those problems in the past but I don’t think I’ve had a problem with self checkout in the last couple years. Granted, all my experiences are at Walmart so maybe they have figured it out. In addition, the whole process is quick and painless. I scan a QR code with the Walmart app when I get to the self checkout, scan my items, press done, and leave.

Also, the Scan and Go system they have at Sam’s Club is awesome. I can scan items on my phone as I’m shopping. When I’m done, I tap purchase, and then walk out with my stuff.
