    Bought alcohol on the self service till and obviously you have to wait for a member of staff to come along and "clear it", I remember being stood for about 15mins waiting for a member of staff who was too busy talking to his work mates and disappearing to go do something else. Terrible service, who'd have a self service till would be like that?

    Did you really stand waiting for 15 minutes?

    I argue back at them when forced to use them: "unexpected item in bagging area... yeah you didn't expect that bag did you"

    I do try to refuse to use them wherever possible as they're only an excuse to cut jobs (and increase profits but not save money for us) - especially when they've got some one yelling at customers to go to them like our local store does which drives me potty - I'm a customer - not some animal to be barked at and herded.

    I've experienced this. A stern and firm 'no' seems to work...
