Sounds great to me It would mean I would have to handle the groceries
two fewer times than normally done. AFA supermarket profits, their
profit margin is among the smallest * I remember reading 3% somewhere.
I like the self-checkout things, too. I don't usually have problems
with them, but I don't think they're fast. My two cents worth.
