        The only place I’ve ever seen this in Canada is at some private liquor stores. They have a tip prompt. I guess in theory someone could help you to decide what you want and make recommendations, but in practice how much does that happen and how much is it really worth? I think it feels like just shaming your customers for not paying your own employees’ wages, tbh.

      No tipping where I live so I don’t benefit from that. Happy to accept a lower charge for my groceries in lieu of pay, though.

      That you tip cashiers is already bonkers.

      But that you guys tip at a self-checkout really takes the cake.

      Thank you computer for doing the job you were programmed to do, here is a tip, don’t spend it all at once!
