TACD posted:I don’t think I’ve handled any coins since April The man at Costcutter has started saying “It’s full” and throwing the coins back in the till whenever anyone tells him to put it in the charity box. It may not be coincidence that he tried to give me £11 change all in coins.

It does make me laugh paying with 'contactless' at the supermarket wherein I have to press the touch screen to select scan and go, again to confirm order, again to select pay by contactless, say no to cash back, say yes/no to receipt. I really hope we can transition to demolition man levels of contactless payment/greeting/cashless for good. Man that film was eerily prophetic.

The hell supermarket are you going to? Tesco doesn't even need you to select contactless, you just tap ready to pay, scan your card and gently caress off.

I believe it is Waitrose at the (card only) self-checkouts. Have to do the same in my Waitrose (which is 3 mins walk from my home and cheaper than the Co-Op before you send me to the wall). You have to press it to start it working. I try to avoid the self-checkouts as I prefer to keep people in jobs but given the absolutely humongous size of the trolleys people are queuing up with at the personed tills, I've given in in the past 3 months and started using the self-checkouts most of the time. crispix posted:did you try to use them like in 1990s smash hit hollywood film demolition man? I postulate that someone swapped the label for a £4 pork belly with that of a 50p bag of bananas or some such. Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 10:47 on Dec 8, 2020 |

I always find their system funny because it'll yell every prompt at you in super clear well spoken English, and then whisper "D'you need a receipt" like it's asking if I need something for the weekend. Then back to full volume when it tells you to take your items and gently caress off.

Scan while you shop is the way to go folks. You bag it all up as you go around the supermarket and there’s never any real queues, and it saves an absurd amount of time.

I did that recently and it was pretty good. It does transfer the labour from the checkout attendant to the customer but self service machines do that anyway.

China style with facial recognition. You smile at the camera and it debits your account. (Also forwards receipts to the CCP so they know all your crisp proclivities.)

Yeah it's great. On the one hand yes I am doing their work for them but it means you can just bag stuff properly as you shop, pay, and load it straight in your car.

ASDA and I use the phone app to scan everything as I shop. You still need to go through all those prompts at the scan and go tills though because gently caress everything.

I tried that last week. Half way through my shop in Supervalu, just after I had gotten a video call from my wife, the scanner crashed and refused to scan anything else. It was like it couldn't connect to the wifi. It meant when I got to the end I had to use the self scan machines and start from the beginning. And still hand the scanning gun back to staff. Also I've heard tons about how we have gone cashless for Covid, but I've seen tons of places still accepting cash. In fact for the first few months all my Pandemic Unemployment Payments were been given to me in cash.

The Sainsburys scan on your phone as you go setup is slick as hell, but I still find it hard to shake the feeling that I'm doing something criminal when shoving food into my rucksack as I walk round the shop.

The good chip shop still insists on cash only but they do have a person just working the till and taking orders with zero contact with the food so it's probably not as bad as it could be.
