Not at my CVS. They have one checkout clerk, and if there are more than 3 people standing in line, it can take 10+ minutes to checkout. With self-checkout, I'm in and out in 30 seconds. Presumably, they'd add more checkout clerks if they remove the self-checkout, but I wouldn't count on it
- ky0ung 3y agoagreed. i've found CVS self-checkout to be the best of all retail stores i go to
- add-sub-mul-div 3y agoRight, they'd have to add more clerks to compensate. I prefer self checkout, but their implementation is horrible.
- WarOnPrivacy 3y agoOur Dollar General closes the SCO at 8pm, the same time they send the 2nd cashier home. So for the last 2 store hours there's 1 cashier - and they're in back performing the 12 other duties they have.
- chasd00 3y agoThen it's not just my local store! CVS cashiers are unbearably slow, self-checkout there means i don't dread going there or at least can avoid the awkward conversation of asking to pay for sundries at the pharmacy checkout. A local 711, granted it's one of those concept stores with lots of bells and whistles, also has self checkout. They're pretty fast at the regular cashier line but self-checkout at 711 makes grabbing a soda/coke and paying for it while getting gas even faster.
