Here is my Review on this as i used it yesterday! :

1) I arrived at the checkout as i had 10 items (The max is 15) to find it said "£9 please insert money and wait for reciept on the screen" which first of all isnt a good sign when you have not scanned anything yet, So i called an attendant over who said it looked like the last person to use the till did not pay and left the store! She clweared the screen and off we went.

2) I started to scan the items which were fine even the ones that were reduced (RED STICERS OVER BARCODE) actually worked ok, UNTI!!! i got to packets of things where it was hard work as you had to strech the plastic out on them so it was straight to read the barcode.

3) I looked at my reciept to find to of the MULTIBUY items i had just got had not knoced the discount off at the end!! So i then had to go to customer services to get it sorted and refunded which took 10 mins.

All in all it is faster and easier to use a checkout unless you have one or two items. I personally wont be using them again as i took me too long to beep them then pay with my cash card and pack it all! But its each to their own i suppose.

So if you use the checkouts make sure you get ur MULTIBUY items at the price they should be.
