To avoid false accusations of theft, avoid self-checkout. YMMV.

I understand that people are abusing the system. I can accept that the store has an interest in loss prevention. But I'll never feel comfortable with being checked up on. As a stubborn person, I'll have to start shopping somewhere else when this happens. This means a less convenient location. Where's the time savings in that?

Many here bring their politically charged economic analysis into it. For me I've always wanted to just get home without any undue awkward/impolite scenarios. Nor do I want to navigate the menu system for produce.

Waiting in a longer line is relatively cheap for the peace of mind gained.

Are you also one of those who get annoyed when people look in containers you purchase or count the goods you present for purchase?

Paying attention is the only way to insure accurate transactions.
