Those self serve checkouts appear to have their downside! Took this photo taken outside Coles a short time ago (faces have been blurred for privacy). All self serve registers down!

Technology does like to mess up on you at the worst possible time. The lesson here is: be ready to have to live without it at some point!

The Coles here actually was doing quite well with what looked like all actual registers manned by a employee. My wait time was totally non-existent despite it being peak hour. Very good job Coles!

I generally think these self serve machines are a good idea, apart from the fact it seems like everything in the store is still the same price. Why am I paying the same amount of money while having to serve myself? Surely everyone who uses the self serve checkout should get a slight discount.
