WM self checks are better now than they used to be where the robot voice would nag about every little thing. they still say Unexpected item in bagging area when you can't separate those !%&^?! cheezy gray plastic bags to open them.

But the new thing is WM i go to put in little video screen cams so you give them a selfie while checking out. Smile and No Sneaking the M&MS!!

Walmart has people stealing TV's between their legs while using long, long trench coats to cover up and acting like they're just fat or pregnant.

women take pregnancy test kits into the bathroom, get their results and pitch in trash.

mothers let their kids eat pastries without paying for. same goes for fruit.

We all pay for this, they mark up the produce to take into account loss of fruit by mothers letting their kids think it's alright to help yourself to the grapes, bananas, apples.

Husband used to work there I know. People bring back bobby pins. Wear the shoes out over a season, then, bring back the smelly shoes and whine "I want refund". People steal stuff, then, come back and want cash saying they have lost their receipt. They clamped down on that c^ap though. As far as I know, no receipt, no refund.

I wouldn't own a store nowdays if you hand me the keys. FREE. Nope.

They took ours out then put them back in later on both ends with regular cash registers in between. The new ones have cameras so they can make sure you are not stealing anything.

I use them all the time since I can check out a lot faster doing it myself.

Last time I was in there I was going to let them check me out but they only had 1 cashier. I had $350 worth of stuff. LOL!!!

I don't know why they have all the registers if they are not going to use them. They don't even all get used during the Holidays.

I have never shopped at a Walmart but it sounds like quite an experience. However, our grocery stores have installed the self check outs and they seem to work out well.

I bought tires at WalMart in September, but haven’t shopped inside the store since last April. I honestly can’t tell you what’s going on there.

At mine they also have employees walking around with scanners and credit card machines. They'll check you out straight from your cart as you're standing in line.

Wow your Walmart sounds like it has better management than mine. I do hate that they took all the scanners out so you can’t check a price without using the app on your phone....problem is, it rarely works right and gives a goofy price or it says n/a

Color me old fashioned or just old but I don't do self checks. One it takes jobs away from people. And I don't trust myself to do it right I don't like scanning fruit or vegetables or whatever is not in a package. And I just want to be treated as a customer not a worker. If this continues they ought to lower the prices because they are not paying anyone...
