using those self-scanners.

I read an article not long ago, (maybe the future of Walmart), where you could scan your
items directly from a built-in scanner attached to a shopping cart.

Stay cool!

And then there is stuff like fresh fruit and veggies where you are charged by the weight of your purchase. Or how about a place like Lowel’s where you can buy individual nuts and bolts that don’t have a bar code? What really gets me is they claim self checkout helps with their labor costs, but they have workers lurking around the self checkout area to help customers. Keep the full service registers open!
