Not bad. I’ve been cutting back on my orange consumption.
Stop.

This is not a revelation nor is it surprising.

I heard it’s a 4% increase in shrink (lost product) associated with the self checkout from some random YouTube video on my feed. Honestly I was surprised at how small that contribution was too.
Stop.

self-checkout machines cost food retailers more than $10 billion in lost profits annually
Don't they make up for it, though, by not having to pay as many human cashiers to be on staff?

This^^
Also, those machines don't pay income tax.

Yes, I read where that is the case with Dollar General, Walmart and Target, and probably others. They plan to limit or completely remove self-checkout from some stores citing frustrations with the technology and thefts.

And they simply increase prices to cover loses too. Those increases have gone undetected during the COVID inflation era.

Me too, most of the time. It's gotten to the point where those rare times I have a cashier ring me up, I feel a little awkward, lol.
