I like to use the self-checkout lanes, even when there are no open stations, they quickly open up. One can count on Walmart to keep pace with what works, they aren't going to impliment changes that affect their customer traffic in the long run. What works in one market may not work in another; that seems like a smart strategy.
So, let me understand this "membership" thing. We already have a membership to Sam's Club, will we now need a membership to Walmart too to get to line up in the "membership" lane? When in the heck is Costco getting here?
