Acceptance is different from liking it. When I shop, sometimes self-checkout is the only option, so oftentimes customers are forced to use it. I don’t think customers necessarily prefer self-checkout for the sake of self-checkout itself. What they want is speed. They don’t want to have to wait in a line longer than they have to. I’m confident that if customers feel that a human can check them out quickly, they wouldn’t care about self-checkout.

If you trust the media, no one likes it. I seem to see the older demographics struggling with it, while the younger demographics accept it. Personally, if it saves me five minutes, it’s worth it to me. Sam's Scan & Go is my personal favorite. I can’t time but I can utilize tools that help me get time back.
