I’m just annoyed that I’ve been using self checkout for thirty years, it was dead obvious how it worked the very first time I used it, but I still have to hear instructions like “place your APPLES in the bag”.
Yes. I know.
Huh, I have never used one with a single spoken instruction. Hopefully it stays that way
Be thankful you live in a culture of dignity
Place your item in the bagging area.

Evidently they need it for people who can't seem to get the memo.
It’s loss prevention. People enter the wrong products that cost less, so it alerts the one cashier what was supposed to be weighed. Not super likely they’ll catch it watching 9 registers, but it increases the risk to the thief.
And it gets mad because you brought your own bags.
