Think that annoys me about Tesco is it no longer weighs your own bag
first - as the last software did. So more often than not needs an
assistant to reset it. Unless you run everything through first, then
load into your own bags afterwards. Which slows things down.


That's a similar issue to Morrisons. Even if you say 'I have brought
my own bag' often you still get 'Unexpected item in bagging area'. It
seems to work okay in Sainsbury's.


It does throw up a window asking if you're using your own bag. But that
often doesn't sort the problem. Perhaps it doesn't like my Sainsbury bag.


ASDA ask whether I'm using bags for life without asking me whether I
brought them with me and so shouldn't be charged.

None of the supermarket self checkouts understand about contactless
cards; even if you say that's what you have the lady in the machine asks
you to insert your card. I always reply, "Shan't!"
