Posted this mostly because I can't stand going to the mall or grocery stores anymore.

Grocery stores are nothing but, a pain in my Azz to get simple things like shampoo and razors.

Now, every store from Walmart to Target that had self checkout is reverting back to clerk checkout.

I swear I'm faster than them.

Malls suck because the demographics have changed so radically in the last 5 years, that clothing styles and sizes no longer pertain to me....at all.

That and both places are becoming increasingly dangerous to with lunatics(well, they are sane but...anyway) walking right out the door or running and mowing people right into the concrete as they escape with their ill gotten gains.

I'm done.

I just order my Neutragena Shampoo online because if it's not available at Target or Walmart, it's locked up and it's a waste of my time to wait around for an item or be told it will be at a register when I go to check out and because it's not in my shopping cart, I forget until I get home and GRRRRRR!

Long time satisfied WM store brand shoper. Stand alone stores for us, mall restrooms have become thug magnets.

You'll end up paying more for food this way. EVERY food store depends heavily on impulse buying. That's why they stack aisles with protruding displays. When you order online, you can't really see the new or novelty or special-priced item. They will have to make up that extra profit somewhere.

If they add impulse buys repeatedly to the online order process, they will run the risk of clunkering their user experience and sending them scurrying to alternate sellers.

I prefer self checkout. I get through way faster.
