The greatest invention are these self-service kiosks.

I do everything I can to use the self-checkout lines at the supermarket. One, it’s faster, two, I can pack my own groceries, and three, I don’t need to deal with the lower-intelligentsia of the people these places hire.

I can only hope these machines are used more and more, whether or not there is an increase in the min. wage.

I like them as well. I use paper bags, and can bag my own groceries nice and neat (you know they way they used to do it), instead of sticking two items in each flimsy cling wrap bag. The wife loads the conveyor and I bag at the end of the conveyor.

I even double bag them (the paper bags are free at the end of our self checkout, or you can use plastic), and I swear the younger people behind me look at me like I’m nuts.

Proper bagging is a lost art, once mastered by all teenagers working at a grocery store.

The most awesome chain sub sandwich in the nation is served by Altoona, Pennsylvania based Sheetz, with stations in six states. For less than $3, you get a choice of breads and ingredients from a self service kiosk which generally ready to go by the time you pump your gas, empty your bladder and wash your hands.

Seriously, this place is so efficient that we actually show it to out of state visitors who've never seen one before.
