I was self checking at a local (in NY) Walmart and the person checking on the customers suggested I hadn't scanned my two 6-packs of soda. In fact, I had, but thanks to her distracting me, I had neglected two other items. One of the contributing factors in all of this was the lack of space for placing items already scanned, and placing items to be scanned, consequently I lost track of what items in my cart had been scanned and replaced and what had yet to be scanned.
I don't mind doing it myself. I'm slow, but I'd rather be doing it slowly and carefully than standing in a line while someone else in front of me is dawdling about, looking for the dime and two pennies so she can make exact change.
