Seems like i have a complete different experience of self checkout here in Germany. But why? Are our devices newer?
Same Czech Republic and Slovakia. All the stores have now majority of sell checkout registers. People prefer them. No issues with them.
There is usually one person assigned to 6-8 of these that is watching and making the corrections.
It cut the waiting time significantly.
