I would love to use self checkouts more often, and need to interact with people less, but the frustration of trying to get those fucking grocery bags open is more traumatic than just going to a cashier.
As a previous cashier, best way to do it is to take your middle finger and swipe down across the center. Like a vertical slap on the bag's face. About the middle of the bag, pull your arm back towards you. It will usually separate the outside wall of the bag from the stack, and when you pull towards you, the bag will "stick" to your finger and then open at the top.
I hated moving slowly as a cashier, cause lines made me mad. So I had to find the quickest way to do everything, and that method works great (for me) until about the last 4 bags.
I completely forgot that there would still be some places with plastic bags at the register. I have a bin I bring and everything just drops in no problem.
