Aye, I know, but I was being flippant. All of it is cost cutting. Self checkout was a way of getting rid of staff... More importantly making customers work for free. They just overestimated their ability to police the process.

To be fair, I'm surprised they don't just hand you a brush and a full trolley on the way in to get you to sweep up and restock the shelves.
