..got so frustrated with these things I've just left my shopping and walked out... They should be creating jobs for the local community not replacing staff with machines
Erm... well if you feel strongly about it then why not use the checkout staff that are there and demonstrate that they are still needed, especially if you struggle with the machines?
I quite often use the ones in my local tesco, what I find quite annoying is the "unexpected item in bagging area" thing comes up when you put your tesco supplied reusable bags down, and then have to wait for the girl to finsih going to every one of the other 7 tills before you can even start to scan your shopping.
All it needs is for them to add a little button that says, I'm doing what you ask and using my own bags! (awaits flaming when someone tells me that this is already there and I'm just blind/stupid/ignorrant*)
*delete as appropriate
momo - already exists on Asda ones, not sure about tesco.
Our local tesco has that button, but it only recently appeared.
However I do feel strongly that the profits the big supermarkets are making is quite frankly obscene.
Vote with your wallet then and shop elsewhere. Stop being so lazy!
What other supermarkets exist other than Tesco and Morrisons
THERE ARE SHOPS OTHER THAN SUPERMARKETS AVAILABLE. Sorry about the shouting, just a point that needs making in these sorts of discussions 
Sainsbury's self scan seem to be the best to me, and Morrison's the worst. I do like the self-service in the Partick Morrison's at Glasgow though - about 90% of the customers are oldies who are afraid to use them so you're guaranteed a nice short queue!
I love these, but recently discovered you can't buy more than 2 packs of Asda own brand Ibuprofen.
Presumably because of the thousands of people each year who decide to kill themselves by getting in their car, disconnecting the hosepipe from the exhaust, driving to the local Asda, past all the local bridges, ignore the more powerful drugs and buy 3 packets of Ibuprofen. 
I always snap the stem of the broccoli - don't see why I should pay for the heavy bit I'm not going to eat
"multiple bakery items, ... Its a real PITA" 
tommy cooper from beyond the grave ?
andituk, it's illegal for them to sell more than 32 (?) tabs unless it's from the pharmacy counter
not really about ibuprofen, but this'll make you cross enough to top yerself
