Please tell me you haven't done away with these yet?

I'd hate to just get beer, when I order beer.

On not letting them do away with cash, I'm with you. Ever tried carrying around thirty pounds of silver? Makes gold look much more attractive.

Aw you'd love self check out over here Skybird. Not only can you make a purchase without any human interaction. The machine processes cash transactions just as easily as a credit card. Only the store security cameras record your coming and goings.

A few months ago, I was in a grocery store that had four of the automatic checkout machines. This family of four, doing a full week's shopping took over all four of them. They divided up the groceries and each family member took over an automated machine with the family's shopping card in the middle. At the end, the mother went to each machine and paid separately.

It was weird as there were several of the more traditional checkout lanes open and the lines were short.

Some people.
