I exclusively use self-checkout because the lines move faster because one line feeds multiple self-checkouts vs each regular checkout having its own line. This leads to head of line blocking from very customers with a lot more items than you.
This is not an exclusive feature of self-checkout. I have shopped at many places where one line is fed into an array of human cashiers.
What store? I have not seen a single store with this setup.
I see it most often at independant or franchise retailers. Places where providing a pleasant customer experience still seems to have an impact on their bottom line.
I believe some Kohls, TJ Maxx, HomeGoods, and Dollar General stores do it.
