Tesco Scan Pack Pay

I love Scan & Pay, those that do it pay the same as me for their shopping by DiY.............. & I get through the 'manned' checkouts faster. So thanks.

I love the Scan as you Shop too.

Never any queues at my local (they have 6 tills). I've been 'randomly selected' maybe 1 in 10 times so not too bad, and it only takes a minute for the operative to scan 3 or 4 items.

That's where my local one is going wrong, they are checking too many people and doing 100% checks with them all.

The first time I didn't mind at all, the second time was a bit annoying and the third was when we had around a 20 minute wait because they were checking so many.

We scanned 100% correctly all three times so you'd think there would be a way of marking that against your club card details so you get less frequent checks. I'd still expect to be check some times but not every time I use them. They could also just do a random check for say 10 items but they have checked every item all three times, defeats the whole point of the system.

stopped using it as always took longer as every single time flipping machine wanted Human intervention from staff..............

I've used it once I think... didn't occur to me to pack the items as I was going around. Ended up with a 100% check anyway so probably to my advantage!

I like the idea of being able to see the running total of my shop as (living with my parents and not doing the grocery shopping) I often get a bit of a shock at the till!

Yep use these all the time, the only thing to watch out for (I found this out the hard way) whilst if an item is miss-priced in store, Tesco will refund the difference.
On the scan and shop they won't, I was told that the onus is on the shopper, as the correct price is listed on screen.

Personally, I don't like it. I brought a top with a large bright yellow sticker affixed to it (as all of them did on the rack) only after I brought it did I realised I had paid more. It didn't occur to me to check my own pricing when something I labelled so clearly.

Other than that, they are a great system, I hardly ever get stopped, and the wait times are greatly reduced.
