For me, one of the most annoying things about shopping in stores is that I'm forced to drive to a big box store like Target or Walmart because they've forced the local stores out of business, destroying traditional downtowns and walkable neighborhoods and making people need a car to get anywhere. Did they fix that?
And on top of this, we have to ring up and bag our own stuff now. There's always a line because someone doesn't know how to use the machine.
Or the machine is having some type of stupid issues. I didn't take anything off your stupid platform, why is the scale throwing a fucken fit?
I'm not sure I've ever gotten out of Home Depot without requiring assistance from the self checkout monitoring person. Their machines are horrendous.
I swear Home Depot and Lowe's are the fucking worst when it comes to their checkout. That alone makes me go to a local hardware store let alone the fact that they know what I need most of the time.
How about an "email only" option for the receipt?
In my last few trips to the local Home Depot, the self checkout machines have worked fine but the human helpers have insisted on being helpful. They’re fine though, lol.
I've had a fair number of trips for individual bolt, washer and nuts because I just need a couple.
