2. I always buy alcohol at Costco so rarely use the self checkout

That said, I was in a Lucky’s supermarket yesterday buying two items a woman ahead of me had a full grocery cart full more than 15 items and during the time I started waiting in line and checking out my two items she was still checking out and her daughters kept bringing her more items. The self checkout clerk never said a word. While in the self checkout line in the front line spot I looked over to the two open regular check out lines and there was hardly anyone there. When I see the regular check out with minimal lines I go there first.
