What could Asda and Morrisons move away from self-checkout mean?
ShareShareShareShareShare

For Beverley Hyrb, from Oldham in Greater Manchester there’s a new nuisance when it comes to negotiating the self-scan. She is particularly turned off by the cameras on some of these tills that capture live footage of the user.

“You see an image of yourself moving about and I don’t like it,” the 62-year-old said. “I’d rather get in a queue.”

Stores could be using the technology to discourage shoplifting, after such cases in England and Wales hit the highest level for 20 years in April.

Ms Hyrb added that there were mental health benefits to speaking to someone when grocery shopping.

“Especially if you’re living on your own. Doesn’t matter if it’s about the weather or the news or whatever, it’s just good to chat.”

For others self-checkouts are not merely annoying, but a challenge to use.

“As a deaf person, I can’t hear the beep when I scan items so I’m always getting in a tangle with them as they don’t always scan correctly,” said Anna Kenyon from Manchester.

She said people – as opposed to machines – are much better at adapting to her condition. Like Beverley, she appreciates the human touch.

“I’ve had some lovely interactions in Aldi where a checkout assistant spontaneously started signing with me. Little moments of connection like that are lovely.”
