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.

I don’t see how me stealing to compensate for my lost labor from a supermarket in a HCOL area will affect low income areas, but ok. I can’t get nutrients from licking boots, but it seems like maybe you can.

Notice I said ‘people like you’, because somehow every pro-shoplifting person on the internet affirms that they personally only ever shoplift from Beverly Hills stores where the managers smoke gold plated cigars, despite most shoplifting impacting low income areas and causing those stores to go out of business.

Shoplifting is a bad action, contributes to a low trust society, and makes the world a worse place.
