I like using self check-outs not because I don't like people, but because it's satisfying to scan something and hear that beep noise. My only problem is that they don't make the scales big enough to handle even a medium-small load of groceries. I was buying only about 15 things, and yet the amount of groceries caused bottles of balsamic vinegar and cooking wine to smash all over the ground when my lettuce betrayed me and pushed them off the scale. That was horribly humiliating. If the scale was bigger or allowed you to take things off after they'd been weighed (Or what if the cart was a scale? Ooooh!) I would use self check-outs all the time.
