Even if I have a full cart, i am usually faster than the actual cashiers. Fortunately there are a few stores in my area that shut down cashier operated ones at a certain time, and become all self checkouts. I'm not saying you're not fast or anything. But it would probably be faster with a manned register with a full cart because a cashier can start scanning stuff while you're putting stuff on the conveyor belt. So, I think with a full cart, it would be much faster with a cashier just because of multitasking. Not to mention, as soon as you're done stacking stuff on the belt, you can start taking the full bags... Where as you would be taking stuff out, scanning, and bagging by yourself otherwise. Now, with two people, it would be a little faster. And with three, maybe faster than the cashier. But I think it wouldn't be as fast if you were by yourself. Not really, most of the self checkouts don't have conveyors. All you do is go straight from the cart to the bags. There really is no excess time for using the self checkout. Staging things is unnecessary. Even with a full cart, I would tend to finish before a cashier --- "Squeak"- Death of Rats, Discworld. <cite>CaptainObvius posted [p:906392219] in People who...

Staging things is unnecessary. Even with a full cart, I would tend to finish before a cashier Yeah. I know that most of them don't have conveyor belts. When I said conveyor belt, I meant the manned stations. What I mean is instead of you scanning and bagging the items, you can have someone do that while you are taking them out of the cart. In a full cart situation. Then, after you are done taking them out, you can start taking the bags. Basically, multiple things getting done at once instead of you taking some stuff out, scanning, and bagging them yourself. It's like using teamwork. Unless you have multiple people or not a lot of items, I don't see how self-checkout can be faster. I've seen people who worked at the store who still took time to bag their items.
