All self-checkouts? At my neighbourhood Walmart, the checkout area is split into three sections: regular checkout (cashiers behind long conveyor belts, separate queues), express checkout (cashier with no conveyor belt, combined queue), and self-checkout (no cashier, combined queue). In Ontario, Canada.
I was impressed with The Home Depot's new self-checkout "machine", which is basically a touch-screen monitor sitting on a big table with a handheld wireless barcode scanner and a regular old receipt printer sitting beside it. Importantly, they ditched the weigh scales which are far too sensitive.
