Self checkout (at least in my experience) is now just become "regular checkout" with extra steps.
Each time I scan an item it refuses to scan, so I need to wait for an associate to approach me.

I love it when a cashier checkout is available because everyone is doing the self-checkout and I can get my stuff bagged properly (I’m terrible at bagging up). I’ll even chat with them as they’re in the middle of the most boring shift imaginable.
as a former cashier, fuck talking to people, the mind's enough

"I don't work here, and I refuse to be a class traitor." Fuck corporate greed that kills jobs for more profit.
I tend to buy so much booze that self check out is a hassle.
It's always a hassle for me. Items not scanning. The machine screaming about the item not weighing correctly. The machine screaming at you because you moved your item.
It's great for quick purchases. But I'm going to a cashier if I have more than 10 items.

I like the scan and go in the Sam’s club app. Scan the items with your phone, and if the QR code receipt is visible when you walk through the gate thing they usually wave you on without a person checking.
Any mistake during self-checkout and my local supermarkets will consider it shoplifting and pursue it all the way to court if needed. I'm not running that risk.
