      Costco and Loblaws in my area. Costco is even more annoying because it yells instructions on how to use the machine at you at every step. Every time. The moment you approach the machine it yells at you to scan your membership card. Then it yells at you to scan your items. Then it yells at you to put it in the bag area. Then it yells at you to use the PIN pad. Then it yells at you to thank you for shopping at Costco.

      I’m wondering how many people got kicked out of the store already for snapping and yelling back at the machine to STFU.

        Walmart self-checkout machines are silent. But now I force myself to shop at Loblaws instead of Walmart to support a Canadian company instead of an American one. Who would have thought that Galen Weston would be a lesser evil.

      Australian ones normally speak.

      “Thanks for shopping with Coles”

      Not like some of us have a choice…
