    I am a cow so cannot speak Bullshine but I do recognise its smell when I come upon it.

    Surely it doesn't take 3 people to watch the self checkout tills and their time would be better spent opening at least one of the normal tills rather than faffing about all huddled round a little computer screen watching what people were scanning.

    To be honest, I really hate using those things with a member of staff looking over my shoulder. It's many times worse than doing it alone, even if I am struggling.

    If I have three options: Manned till, self service with person keeping their distance, or self service with someone "helping" option 3 is by far the worst for me.

    Cash is no longer quicker than card... now you often get card only tills, much better.

    True, put card in, type number, get receipt, very quick. At least if you know what you're doing and you're not my Mum ;)

    Better than back in the day with people paying by cheque and the entire queue would let out a collective moan when the person in front took out their cheque book as the process took aaaages!
