That's interesting. On the occasion that I've shopped at Walmart, it hasn't been very smooth. And there's always a line. But our local Kroger-owned store (Fred Meyer) has lots of self-checkout kiosks that are all manned with a 1:6 ratio, and they're pretty seamless. They used to be a bit trigger happy with touchy scales, but Kroger seems to have eased up on that. Heck, they just added hand-scanners so you can just leave everything in the cart as you scan. Or just grab a scanner as you go in the store and do it that way.
