    We were talking about this the other day. Is it faster, or does it appear faster since they have removed so many cashiers? Like 20 lanes and 1 cashier, with 4 self checkouts.

      Well, most stores over here have around 10-16 self checkouts in the space that would be occupied by 4-6 regular lanes. So I’d say it is faster even accounting for people taking longer.
