Yeah I’ve been scanning as I shop at Bo’s. Always have to remember to hit the booze aisle first to pad the bottom of the trolley with the heavy. Stuff but then it’s very easy and good

Last day of the work year, isn’t it. I’ll mainly be floating around the office thanking people for their hard graft. After lunch we’ll have a glass of champagne and I’ll tell everyone (well most people) they’re getting a bonus and can go home early. The mood will be celebratory, my suit’s immaculate, i’ll have a sore shoulder from all the pats on the back, i’ll be cheered out of the room like a retiring pugilist. I’m absolutely, categorically, 100% not ending the scene getting into a Robin Hood taxi with an armful of scrunched-up carrier bags.

never once have i ever scanned as i shopped

i’m not against it or anything, just always forget it’s a thing until i’m at the checkouts wondering why no one is using those weird ones on the end

Omg you need to get on this. Pack as you go so no need to balance too much stuff on the self service scale. No annoying messages from the self scan checkouts. Glide past the queues of people waiting for the self checkouts because scan as you go is always empty. Being able to double check that something is the right price. Big fan.

Good luck big man, we’ve did our Big Shop™ on Monday, but going again next Monday for THE BOOZE SHOP. Gonna be mad isn’t it. In, self-scan, out. Hoping to do it ninja style in <30 minutes.

Yeah, really feels like a privileged position and you should be charged more for it. But it’s completely free!

Reckon I’d pay a fiver to scan as I shop if they charged it, tbh.

Ooft wouldn’t go that far. Maybe a pound of I was doing a really big shop

And in Tezzers it actually SAVES you money, cos you had to sign-up for a Clubcard to use the handsets, which gives you discounts! WOW! Have all my habits in exchange for £1 off a crate of Fosters please xoxoxox

obviously

I hear what you’re saying, but also… ehhh

Would you say that epimer is out of touch with Scottish issues?

Amazed its taken this long for the big supermarkets to do this. Was a thing in Waitrose about 10 years ago. Maybe they just don’t trust their customers.

i tend to fill up my basket until it’s too heavy and i have to put some stuff back, so i don’t think this method is for me

most big supermarkets have been doing this for years haven’t they? think there’s just more people actually bothering to use it this year

Yeah, first saw it when we used to shop at Sainsbury’s, and we moved from that house about 15 years ago

Remember seeing it briefly in Asda a few years ago, then it disappeared. Pretty sure it’s only been a thing in Sainsbury’s for the last few months.

how do you weigh your loose fruit/veg for a scan&go situation?

Yes
