    With self checkout you do the bagging while scanning though.

      Correct, which is why no matter how fast you are at the checkout part it’s still going to be slower, especially if you’re trying to bag things in any way other than “dump stuff into bag as fast as possible” - you can’t both be scanning an item and putting an item on the bag at the same time unless you’re just dropping it there without looking (which is a problem if anything you’re buying is in a glass bottle or jar).

        Yes, of course you can lol.

        This is starting to sound more and more like a skill issue than anything else.

        Either way, I don’t mind if you choose the regular checkouts. It keeps the self checkout queue free for the rest of us 😀
