You are a terrible person lacking in morals. You are also not very bright. They have adjusted the price to account for the customers doing more work—if they had to pay lots of cashiers, prices would be higher. Trader Joe’s has made that choice and saves money elsewhere (by having more limited choice and distribution lines). You are the reason the rest of us are suffering with the new software. We can’t have nicer things because of awful selfish people like PP. |
Get over it. |
Thief is a thief no matter how you justify it. |
Theft costs all of us in higher prices.
Theft also causes retailers to close locations. |
It’s sad that theft isn’t prosecuted any longer. I caught myself thinking - why do I bother paying for something when others just take it for free and never face any repercussions?
I won’t steal but I will admit it’s demoralizing. |
I agree with you on annoying self checkouts at Costco. Why can’t I just scan the barcodes? They do check at the door so it’s not like I can shoplift. The cashiers also started asking to unload the cart instead of just putting things barcodes up and scanning them in the cart. Super annoying |
Wegmans ended them. |
I envision a future where grocery stores are pick up only...or you have to pay extra to go in the store due to theft. |
Are you legit complaining about the quality of service at Walmart? |
I love when I get a fast employee at Costco who will scan inside my cart! Only during busy times though, otherwise I have to do it myself and take all the items out. Though I’ve found if you mess something up they will sometimes just finish for you. The phone scanner at Sam’s is good, but in general we just a crappy Sam’s that isn’t as well run or as well stocked as Sam’s in other places. I have no idea why. |
What are these? |
All the grocery stores are learning that self checkout leads to crazy amounts of theft. So now they are scrambling to pull back. It seems like a bargain to pay someone $10 an hour to scan groceries and reduce theft and increase customer service. But maybe I don't understand grocery store finances. |
I got sighs and almost a reprimand last time I didn’t unload my cart at Costco. |
Are you legit suffering from an inability to put things into context? Read the post this one was replying to, ya big dummy. For F’s sake it was only a sentence. Was that one sentence legit too long for you to legit follow? |
Or maybe they’ll be like those new Amazon Go stores where your items are automatically scanned when you put them in your cart and you just walk out the door when you’re done. I think I heard there’s one in DC? Anyone tried it? |
