Self Scan Checkouts Are A Nightmare

[gordiescotland1]

I went shopping to Morrisons with my parents and what should have been an easy task took over 20 minutes with there being 1 person serving at the self scan checkouts of 8 people who all had problems at the same time such as incorrect item in bag, take the last item out of the bag item not recognised etc etc. Never again it should come with a health warning for people suffering from high blood pressure not to use them.

Managed to find a box of four eggs the other day! What a good idea.

[ummmm]

Does Safeways still exist

[DaisyNonna]

Not here. Used to shop there.

I think Morrisons took Safeway over.

[DaisyNonna]

So why not take over the premises? Still vacant.

[tonyav]

They Did take over one of the premises in my area, Daisy. And another ( much smaller one ) has become a Tesco express.

The exit sign from my local railway still points to Safeways though it has be Morrisons for at least 10 years.

Morrisons here took over a large Co-op site. Used to be pleasant. Now like trying to shop in an aircraft hangar. Hopeless to get there unless you have your own transport. Tried once. Never again.

Have never come across a Waitrose in the NE. Perhaps they think we are too poor or too thick.

[tonyav]

I havn't come across one in the West Mids either, Blackadder.

Only place I can buy celery salt and quail eggs. Not elitist. Often use celery salt in my cooking instead of sea salt. Do not always want a whole egg as part of my lunch.

[Mamyalynne]

I buy it before she does.
