I know it’s an accessibility thing and all that probably but I wish we could just have a grown-up self checkout that just beeps when you scan stuff and doesn’t feel the need to talk you through every step. Maybe we need a non-idiot lane for those who just want to scan, pay, and fuck off. Tesco’s are the worst. “We just need to approve this!” - I sodding well know you do.

I think they're doing these when agreements with Texaco/other labels expire. Mapperley in Nottm was done about 4 years ago.
It is a lovely looking canopy and that logo is just so flipping lovely. I note that there are still no societies using it tho.
I wonder if The Co-op Group want higher payments for its use or something? It certainly kicks the arse of the 'co-operative' 2007 one which many continue to use.

Our local coop was on the default "NCR self service checkout" voice for ages, they've only recently changed it to one which sounds like it was text to speech and robotic.bilky asko wrote: ↑Sun 20 Feb, 2022 21.20Just use Scan & Go for that purpose (where available).all new Phil wrote: ↑Sun 20 Feb, 2022 16.52I know it’s an accessibility thing and all that probably but I wish we could just have a grown-up self checkout that just beeps when you scan stuff and doesn’t feel the need to talk you through every step.
