Really? All the produce I deal with have a numerical code, or you can search by picture, or search by keyword. pretty simple. Self checkout is so much more efficient. I hate it when i have a full cart and can’t justify the self-checkout line. We need phone barcode checkout like Sam’s club for everything.
I always just pick up the portable self scanner and scan items as I put them in my cart. By the time I get to self checkout everything is scanned and I just pay. Pretty much every major grocery chain in my area (Netherlands) does that, it’s not common where you live?
The only self scanning store I know of is Sam’s club (large bulk type store). I also believe Walmart is changing to that as well (same parent company). Unions here in the US are trying to stop self-checkout wherever they can.
Different cultures, different features. Some places in Denmark have that, where you can just scan and pay with your phone and just leave. Never seen security in a supermarket and the most you have to do is show the cashier that the phone screen is green (meaning you paid).
In Romania, there are the cart & self scan checkouts, but there are also checkouts where you put your stuff in the cart, then an employee scans them like usual, then you go and pay for your stuff at a machine. Both are watched, with security.
