Though it brings a whole host of other challenges, if I could scan my groceries as I put them in the cart, I could bag them in my own containers as I go. I know a few chains allow scanning while shopping but it's not widespread and I'm not sure if they actually allow you to use your own bags. Theft would be a real problem that can't just be hand waved away but it sure would be ideal and do away with most of the grocery bag problem, at least for me.
- elthran 2y agoThe process is super common in the big UK supermarkets - and it's absolutely my preferred way of doing a larger shop. You can use whatever bags/containers you like (or even none at all and just keep things in the trolley/cart if you want). They then do spot checks at the checkout to see if items have been scanned, and remove any security tags
