I have used the self check-out at Home Depot and at K-Mart and like them both. At Home Depot the set up four self check-outs with one employee overseeing the units. It runs very smoothly and fast. Which begs the question--if I can do it for myself quicker, why can't I do it elsewhere? I hope the grocery workers understand this self-check out may eliminate them all together.

That's a good question there...you're totally unskilled at checking out merchandise - why should someone who does it all day long be slower than you are?
