I guess you work for Aldi/Lidl and are very protective of them.

No, I do not work for any Supermarket. Why do people always assume you work for a company when you write something they don't like?

Well I work for one of the three supermarkets I mentioned so stick that in your pipe and smoke it. Then tell me I'm lying.

As I said before, you're obviously exaggerating. If not how do you know? Did you use a stop watch!!!

I think self service might help with the queues along with management etc.

My local asda has loads of self scans and lines were just normal - just one person in front of you at most. As someone else said, getting in the car park and finding a space took much longer. Local tesco was slightly longer than normal but they dont have any self scans.

They did completely run out of milk though. Always amazes me how people panic buy when the shops are only closed for 1-2 days. You have to wonder how we ever survived when they used to close for much longer!

At our mega Asda a lovely lady walks up and down the tills with a big green cardboard finger...fab idea. Usually it points horizontally toward tills with short queues. Perhaps they should make it rotatable so that in certain circumstances, the finger can be pointed upwards?

With regard to the OP..In that circumstance i would have either dumped all the shopping or just walked out of the store with it. It would depend how close my pressure guage was to the red zone..

I was in my local asda on the 23 rd .It was mobbed and the queue for each checkout was down the aisles, a 40 min wait could easily have happened, I had a few items and went through the self checkouts ,that took about 15.

All the checkouts were open, the shop was just packed.

Why did I need a stop watch? I wasn't counting time.

The green finger in ASDA is not always that. I've gone to the checkout with the green finger pointing before and soon regretted it. The checkout person was having a right good old natter with the customer (knew each other) and going really slow as a result. The next checkout was moving faster.
