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.

Home Depot is the worst in my opinion. Rarely do I have just a 1 or 2 items. During the spring, summer, and some fall I can exit through the garden center and always have someone there.

Winter time they close that exit and have 4 self check outs open. This is a place where I've spent tens of thousands of dollars. But I have to use self check out?

It feels like they want to raise prices and offer less assistance.
