Most of our grocery stores have had self-checkout lanes for several years. But this is new:
The "Scan-IT" system. As you enter the store, you scan your discount card at a little kiosk and pick up a small hand-held scanner and some bags. As you shop, you scan each item as you put it into your bags. Then, at the checkout, you scan your card again, return the scanner, and pay - your order is already totaled.
Interesting, and if everyone adapts to it, a real time-saver at the checkout line!!!
