I prefer self checkouts to manned ones, even if the line is shorter at the latter. I like scanning my own groceries, and don’t really like someone else doing it for me.

That’s interesting. I have not thought about it that some people really like it. Fair enough, hen the self-checkout is great for you.

Ya but it also influences where I shop. I don’t bother with Trader Joe’s anymore, because they don’t have self check out. Some people are the opposite, but in general I think self checkout is more popular than not.
