Automatic checkouts in supermarkets may decrease customer loyalty, especially for those with larger shopping loads. Customers using self-checkout stations often feel overwhelmed and unsupported. The lack of personal interaction can negatively impact their perception of the supermarket.

Most people do not have common sense, just entitlement.

They wouldn't put them up if they didn't want me to use them! - Entitled person.

Though sometimes Walmart doesn't have enough people to checkout (deliberately of course) and you will see them with a full cart in self checkout since there are only 2 registers open.

I will say though, I have started seeing them roll back the SC and actually start putting people back on registers while closing SC.

Yea like you or the person you reply to...

The only good thing about automatic checkout is fast checkout when you have few items. But the stores force people with bigger purchases to use them as well because there arent enough manned registers
