Why Lidl are doing better- real people on tills!

Post by rockyfowler »

I think the automated tills (where you do all the unpaid work assisted by the staff when they hit a glitch which is very regular) are killing the big supermakets
My vote for the worst glitch is problem in the packing area does anyone else love em :roll:

I hate them. Never use them. Well i did once when i went shopping with my 5 year olfd grandson. He said in Dutch but i'll say it in English "Come on Bob( he calls me Bob well they all do) use the automatic payout" I said ok but i hadn't a clue . He had to show me but then he walked off to sit in one of those play cars .I couldn't get through the turnstile so he had to come back and tell me to put my receipt up against the scanner !
