I very specifically wait in line to make an actual employee scan my items and bag them. I will go out of my way to make the corporation pay someone to do the job rather than pass the labor on to me the customer. They sure as hell aren't passing on any savings to me, so they can pay a human to check me out.
The savings is your time. It’s generally much faster to go self checkout, especially for small purchases.
