KentOnline asks people in Strood what they think about self-service check outs

Transcript

00:00I'll always go to a managed checkout if one's available, but otherwise, no, I don't like them at all.

00:07They're really convenient. I'm pretty antisocial myself, so if I can just get through my shopping,

00:12just go to the self-checkout machine, get it all done, I'm quite happy with that.

00:15The more self-checkouts you get, the less interaction you've got with staff,

00:20and I presume that in the long run it will mean less jobs for people in the stores and supermarkets.

00:27Well, it just all depends on the amount of shopping I do.

00:31If I just do a few bits, then I will go through the self-checkout, but otherwise, I'll go through the other one.

00:39I try and avoid them if I can, because if you go to a normal checkout,

00:47it's one of the only ways that you can prove that you paid for all the items.
