I bet it depends heavily on what stores you frequent and where. Also which country ofc. In from the Netherlands and have similar experience, some stores even have portable DIY scanners.. so I scan while I shop and just hand in the scanner and pay.

I forgot to mention the wireless scanner in my op, but that is part of the steps I listed.
