I would be faster, if the tills didn't have a bloody delay after placing the item in the bag, before it will scan the next one.

    "Unexpected item in the bagging area." "Please place the item in the bagging area." "Unexpected item in the bagging area." "Please wait for assistance."

    This was funny like a decade ago when it was commonplace.

    Stores in my area solved that at least 6 years ago, maybe even earlier than that.

    Stores near me first put in self checkouts around a decade ago and still have the original, problematic machines. It's the newer stores or ones recently renovated that have upgraded, but that is rare.

    I didnt realize places still did that, I haven't heard that annoying line in a few years.

    Yeah I'm not actually talking about the "Please place the item in bagging area" part, I'm talking about the second or two after I place it before the system registers the weight and re-activates the scanner.

    Sometimes I've seen this disabled, on certain tills at certain supermarkets, and I can scan breezily. Not sure if the weight check feature was disabled completely or what.
