re: #307 Dangerman

self check out is good and can be faster if:

you dont have a lot of items or multi-quantities
you know they are all labeled and scannable
you know how to use the self checkout lane (scanner gun, quantities, payment methods)
the waiting line’s not too long

grocery stores are generally more complicated because a greater percentage of fresh produce, weighing, having to look up codes by the pictures, etc

home depot etc can get more complicated when you start dealing with large carts of lots of things. then a checker can scan much fast than the average customer - especially with quantities

Yeah, pretty much so. I tend to shop 10 items or less, all items pretty well known. Straight forward, down to bagging them.
