    Yeah most self checkout at grocery stores is hot garbage for all the reasons you mentioned and more.

    My favorite self check out experience is at Uniqlo. You walk up to what is effectively a plastic bucket with an iPad attached. Toss your shit in the bucket it shows you what it thinks you put in there and you click ok and tap you CC. It takes like 30s.

    Grocery stores are just cheap and won’t put the 5 cent RFID tag on things.
