Wait...ok, so I haven't really shopped anywhere but Meijer or (to a lesser extent) Kroger for about a decade. Is this why I haven't seen the problems with things like "unexpected item" and such? That could make a lot of sense. It's been driving me crazy seeing stories like this when the worst experience I have with self checkout is when the camera thinks I'm stealing something because I have, like, a Wendy's cup.
The Kroger near me is fine about that, but it's newer self checkouts so they probably haven't had time to fall into disrepair yet.
