They may have a search by name, but by the time I hit the produce button, then the search by name button and start keying in the name, a cashier could have rung up two things.

For OTC it happened the other day, just to buy NyQuil at cvs.

    I mean... thats because the cashier memorizes the codes because they do it hundreds of times in a single day. You could do it equally as fast too if you knew the codes too.

    Ah yes, stuff like nyquil is ussually age restricted...

    Yeah, that’s my point; I’m never going to memorize those, so I’ll never be as fast as a cashier.

    Eh. Thats only a minor issue imo. The real issue is they provide no room to take items from the cart, scan and bag it and keep it in the bagging area. After 2 bags, the area is full. Why dont they have carts stationed there so you just transfer from one cart to the other?

    Another issue I have is the machine scans a barcode that is not a 'product' barcode and you cant clear it yourself. You need an attendant to clear it. Thats very annoying.
