Don't you ever visit supermarkets?


There are always teams of pickers roaming my local supermarket with
hand-held terminals and a trolley with 6-8 baskets on it. Lots of
consult hand-held (tells them row, shelf, item), scan it, scan barcode
on basket on trolley, place it in basket. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Not at my local one.

I've never seen them in any of the supermarkets I go to.
It would be rather inefficient for them to do it like that on any real scale.
