At self checkout, I pack while I scan, and then I have control over the order of scanning and packing.
It does suck that places are opting to have self checkout in exclusion to checkout lanes, but for the people that don’t like self checkout just don’t use it when you have the choice.
Costco is especially infuriating because they do not tolerate anything on the platform before you can start. You also cannot remove anything from the platform before you’ve paid and everything… So you can’t pack as you go, making everything slower and more stressful for everyone. If you even attempt to, the goddamn thing locks up and the clerk has to unlock it for you.
