Can you check out alcohol (beer/wine/spirits) in the self checkout?
Not in these parts. Don’t know if that’s true everywhere though.
Not an issue in Alaska. You can't buy any type of alcohol in a grocery store. Never tried it down in Arizona where my winter house is. I think I've bought alcohol twice while down there, both times at a regular checkout stand, as that store doesn't have self checkout.
Only with the help of a nearby cashier. The light goes off when scanning those items.
That's the main reason I avoid self-checkouts. As soon as I scan my beer all sorts of lights start flashing and I have to wait for some 22-year-old front end manager come to check my ID.
