On the other hand Walmart has been getting rid of self checkout because they're not actually effective.

Interesting, I rarely go to Walmart if I can avoid it, but I've noticed the stores here seem to only have a couple staffed checkouts left. There's 14+ isles of self checkouts.

That's really surprising. In my experience its so much faster than traditional cashier.

They're not effective at reducing/preventing shrink. Unsure what the time situation is at scale for the stores. To be sure I'm faster and better at bagging but holy crap some people are not.

[acessoproibido]

Shrink meaning theft? That would make more sense to me.

My local Target had also done this most of the past year but re-opened them recently, thankfully.

Depends on the neighborhood
