maybe attach a dust mop to the shopping carts?

That is a million dollar idea!!!

Regarding self checkout, I love it and use it every chance I get for a multitude of reasons.

I don't like "self checkouts". There is usually one item that refuses to be scanned. The stores that have them should give a discount for using them. What's next? Maybe have their customers stock the shelves for them while browsing the isles or maybe attach a dust mop to the shopping carts?

I noticed a robotic floor cleaner while in Menards last week. It was a little Zamboni style floor washer, just cruising up and down the aisles with no one on board.
As for stocking shelves, I've been known to rearrange products if they are messed up. I also get boxes off the top storage areas if I need something and I can read the stock numbers (as long as there's a ladder nearby). The store clerks nearly have a heart attack when they see me up on those ladders carrying boxes down.

I'm thinking you might be right!!!!

I saw one of these at King Soopers (aka City Market, aka Kroger) the other day. They took our jobs!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

I read somewhere they had to shut these down because people encircled them staring in amazement. Doesn't seem very far fetched.

It’s a safe bet they took someone’s job. If it was yours you might not be laughing.

Here's what kills me. Every time I walk past the self checkouts at HD to get to a real checkout, there'll be one or two clerks standing there just a few feet away in case the machines screw up. Why not just have them check normally?

There you go. Rub it in and mention MENARDS. Menards puts both Lowes and Home Depot to shame. And there aren't any Menards stores east of Ohio. We travel far west every year and I just love shopping at Menards stores.

Yep, and we know why store clerks nearly have a heart attack when they see you up on those ladders carrying boxes down. :shocked:
