I find the Tesco ones work perfectly.

The Waitrose ones however are fucking shit.

There's a M&S round the corner from me that *only* has them. No normal checkouts at all. Like wtf?!

I don't use them because it's usually quicker to just go to a normal drone staffed till.

I use them every day at lunch because I hate waiting on a queue for like 3 items. If you know what you're doing you shouldn't have any problems

I always use them because I don't like interacting with other humans.

I feel that if I use them I should get a discount as I'm not paying someone's wages. :eek:

haha ah these things are a pain if the staff behind the till either cba or just dont know what to do, like if it runs out of bags and you put a new load on you have to do it signed on as a staff member etc so it resets the scales; or the next customer comes along and it says " unexepected blah blah" even though you have no items on it you got 300kg of bags its dont know about on there.
I sometimes have to tell my colleague next to me on the till to help them.... all they have to do is either press 1 button for weight, 2 buttons for over 18 stuff., which is frustrating for customers and me :p
When I go into another store and they just leave me waiting at the machine I usually just tell em "are you going to to press the button or shall I !? " ... lol I am impatient but its fucking basic to use it as a staff or customer.

Last time I was in a store with them the woman next to me was having a nightmare using it and had to call over the assistant at least 3 times that I saw. When she got stuck again she went "fuck this", picked up her bags and just walked out the store without paying. I'm sure this happens a lot.

I've accidentally stolen a loaf of bread before. The other day I couldnt work out why it wasnt letting me pay, so called over the guy who pointed out half the stuff wasnt scanned properly. Basically I was too pissed to notice I wasnt scanning propely and just lobbing stuff in without looking :D

Drunk in a supermarket, what an uplifting experience.

There are certain states of sobriety that are massively warped by the weird flourescent lighting in big shops.

I used to wander round the supermarket off my tits. Was a pretty weird experience.

Tesco's being open at 4 in the morning as you walk home is just asking for a drunken perusing to be fair.

I especially like people in front of me during busy periods that scan alcohol and security tagged items like DVDs and clothes.

I hate people who go up to the small basket sized ones with a trolley. Then look confused where there is not enough room for the bags. Or the fuckers who have no clue what they are doing so end up tying up the one member of staff so the other 7 checkouts have to stand there and watch, if you don't know what your doing go to a manned checkout fuck pig.
