[Poll] Do u prefer human cashiers or self checkout kiosks?

[iPod Jack]

Which method u prefer?

will u stop patronising if only self checkout is available

 

[mirukuboi]

No plastic bags so no difference

 

[saltydog]

prefer human chiobu cashiers

 

[iPod Jack]

Only advantage of self checkout is the queue faster than cashier queue

other than that, lose to human cashier in terms of payment process and packing service

 

[W1n7f1r3]

In terms of waiting time depends on who r at the q
Som boomers n domestic workers may take quite a while to clear there either they r unaware of using the kiosks or the domestic workers hav a lot of things to buy so may take a while

At counter customers may get info on pdts promos or those tiongs dun udst English can jam up the q

Last week was at a particular supermarket only self checkout counters, old pple duno hw to use n jam the queue. End up i return the item to shelf n left.

Self checkout but must have plastic bag

You can take your own time to arrange the items in your eco-friendly carrier bag, for optimal weight distribution and to avoid crushing bread etc.

One downside is that it is slower than having the cashier pack for you.

Self checkout. Cashier always kena delay because some items got sale, cashier will tell customer to go get more, everybody waits for 2 mins more.

 

[deathan9el]

no preference
both oso fine w/ me

 

[mryongtan]

No personal preference, whichever is the fastest I would go for it. Cashier queue mostly slower due to boomers using cash/vouchers/unpriced items & also asking questions.

 

[HelIoo]

Depends the number of items I need to pay

 

[Full_Cream_Milk]

Self checkout ONLY IF

The system is flexible enough let customer delete extra scanned item

Or override wrong info on screen.

 

[phunware]

Self checkout so can try to cheat the computer

 

[エステ好きな野郎]

Human cashiers.

Self-checkout makes me feel like I work for the supermarket and I should be getting paid for doing a cashier's job.

 

[XiaoChilli]

Human cashiers better.
Lazy to self scan and pay.

 

[Medicated Oil]

Both.
Like what Seng Shiong did.
Or else it is cashier.
Too lazy to scan myself.

 

[Firstclass1188]

Self checkout no need pay cold drinks charge of 15 cents

Alot of items, cashier easier. Little items, self checkout faster. But if no cash option, won't bother patronising.

 

[keenklee]

IMHO.
Weekend I buy grocery above $200. I prefer cashier to help me pack into plastic bag.
