    self checkout at walmart

    Does anybody use the self checkout register at your WalMart? I suppose I would if there was a line with the other cashiers,but we never go there when its really busy.I just don't think its right they expect us to check ourselves out.Isn't part of the price of the groceries the check out service.Give me a price break and I'ld gladly do it,but untill then I want face to face customer service.

    Just make sure you watch the price of everything that scans and rings up.
    If it makes a mistake (in their favor), take the reciept to the customer service and you get that item for free.
    I can't tell you how much stuff I got for free because Walmarts scanners are so bad.

            A lot of places have these now. I tend to use them. I get through the lines faster that way, and for me the quicker I can get out the better.

                I never use self check-out anywhere.
                Ever!
                Never will.

                It's bad enough that we ship most of our work out to 3rd world countries.
                Now they want the customers to do what their staff should be doing.

                    I refuse to use the self checkouts, mainly beacause if they are popular, they will take over, and then what are the old grannies, illegal aliens,and heavily made-up/perfumed and acne prone teenagers (male and female these days)going to do for a living?

                        Before I used the self scanning checkout, I thought the checkout operators at my local Woolworths were just very slow. Now I realise it is mostly the equipment so I have a bit more patience with them.

                        I find self checkout okay when I only have a couple of things but a pain when I have a trolley full. It annoys me how they shut down most of the registers so you either have to use self checkout or wait in a huge line.

                            I actually use them all the time at different Stores. I like to get in, & out as fast as possible, if I only have a few items..., & it seems to be the Quickest way to do so.

                            On the other Hand,.. if you are buying carded Toys with no Weight,.. Like Star Wars, Joe's or even the New Marvel Universe figures,.. self check out at Walmart Sucks & is the Worst. When you go to bag your Item(s) ..., they are so light weight that the machine doesn't register the item when it goes into the bag,.. thus it always thinks you are not bagging your item. I have literally Thrown the Carded figure has hard as I possibly could into the Bag,.. & it still doesn't register Bagged. It blows,.. & is a Real pain in the Arse, so you constantly need the clerk in charge to come over to your Register & constantly correct the Machine. It's a real Drag,.. & isn't faster at all.

                            .. The Post office Self check out is fantastic. No more long lines,.. unless you Half to Mail something over seas... I go there at night too,.. when no one is there.

                              Except no matter what time of night I go to the PO there is either someone in front of me who has no idea how to push buttons or as soon as I get there 4 people line up behind me huffing and puffing because they have to wait a couple minutes. I can't figure out why they dont put 3 or 4 of these self-serve stations in post offices?
