I always do self-checkout at Home Depot. It usually works perfectly, and when the attendants have to scan something large or a by-foot cut of something, it's usually quick. At grocery stores, it's a different story entirely. Buying 3 things? Doesn't matter, you'd better put your bag in the "packing area" before scanning anything because it'll stop working when you try to pack something. Or pack it into the bag as you scan? Nope, it'll stop working. It does however make me appreciate the considerable number of memorized vegetable and loose-weight codes the cashiers remember.
