That's weird as well, but what I meant is in Europe you pack your groceries yourself
This OP picture is from somewhere in Europe. "Till" is the English word, while Americans would say something like cash register or check out counter. And SPAR is a European chain of grocery stores
Fair points!
She's Irish, and has possibly one of the most Irish names I've ever seen.
I'm guessing ROI.
But in the U.S our food is not fresh enough to be bagged by the customer. It must be wrapped so it can sit out for a considerable duration.
what about it?
Some places in the UK will ask if you want help packing your bags.
interesting, didn't know that despite having lived in the UK and Ireland for a while
Colruyt insists on their weird "cashier tranfers the items into another cart while scanning and bags them for you while they're at it" strategy. And they do own the Spar brand in Belgium.
Although as franchisees some of the Spar stores keep the regular tills. Unfortunately mine does the weird cart transfer thing, which is much slower, though apparently it deters theft..?
Oh, right.
Maybe we should look into that to reduce unemployment.
The Asian model, create endless useless jobs to make sure everyone can have something to do even if it's just standing in front of a parking entrance to point people in.
So like Walmart greeters

At expensive American grocery stores, they have baggers.
Expensive?
At my local Price Chopper they have occasional baggers. It’s definitely not an expensive store.
Exactly what I'm referring to
