My favorite kind is where you just get a scanner when you walk into the store. Scan stuff when you put it in your bag, scan the scanner at the end, pay and leave. No futzing about moving stuff from cart to bags or anything like that, and it's way more convenient to use my own bags because I'm loading them as I go, instead of being rushed at the very end.
