    Our local sainsbury now has an exit barrier that you have to open by scanning your receipt.

    Asides from being a waste of paper, it totally makes you feel like a criminal. It’s not a feeling I enjoy.

      Those are very common in the Dutch supermarkets. There are no dumb weighing systems though, so if you scan on the go you can pack it while shopping.

      The Albert Heijn uses an optional loyalty card that can be used to exit without a receipt (just scan the same loyalty card).
