You flatter us, but I'm not convinced the Swiss are particularly honest. And I'm not convinced that anything the US register does is particularly helpful to catch cheating.
- narrowrail 10y agoI can take you to stores where the self-checkout is as good or better in the US as you describe. How many different corporate entities and how many different communities did you visit in the US?
