Responses:

I refuse to use them. Get rid of all self checkout and bring back the cashiers. - Krusty Mar 15, 06:47
My Target has the signage up but the employee allowed me and my 20 something items, probably because there was no line (and I'm old). -- nm - zunkstump Mar 15, 06:41
yeah the hyvee near me did that, went from you can use it for everything to 12 items, which is annoying - tRuMaN Mar 15, 06:37
And unless they higher more cashiers to keep the lines down, I will never go "shopping" at Target again. Need a jar of salsa? Sure. - sycor Mar 15, 06:34 3
- We just use the drive up pickup. It is insanely efficient and ready in < 2 hours. -- nm - oblique Mar 15, 06:36 2
  - I've used it for specific items, but never done it for groceries. I don't like the idea of substitutions or someone else - sycor Mar 15, 06:39 1
    - Produce can be iffy sometimes but I've been generally pleased with it overall (though I get that from Jewel, not Target or pick it myself at Trader - oblique Mar 15, 06:41
rumour I heard was Walmart was going to start charging a fee for people to use the self checkout... -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Mar 15, 06:34 5
- bwahaha So you want me to do your non-existent employee's job, pay to do it, and then still harass me for a receipt on my way out? Pound sand. -- nm - sycor Mar 15, 06:36 4
  - we rarely go already cause you have to pay a buck to use their fucking carts (at least at 1 store here) -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Mar 15, 06:37 3
    - Seriously? You get the money back though when you return the cart, right? -- nm - sycor Mar 15, 06:40 2
      - Of course you do. It's the tiniest inconvenience. -- nm - Reagen Mar 15, 08:16
      - wouldn't know. won't pay it. (but you do) -- nm - Beaker 🍺 Mar 15, 06:42
it's almost like getting rid of the cashiers was a bad idea -- nm - decline Mar 15, 06:33
