    My only issue is how loud and obnoxious the prompts/alerts are at some stores who have their volume cranked to max.

      My local king soopers always allowed a super low volume setting if you clicked it, now there’s only two, yelling and screaming. People were probably setting that and the beep couldn’t be heard on the camera or something

      European here. Our self-checkouts make no sounds and don’t have any of that unexpected item bs. The experience is great. If your experience is like what I’ve read here, I begin to understand why it’s disliked.

        Also European here. They do. Certainly in the shops I’ve been in. Probably a country thing.
