My first shopping in NZ was at New World.
At checkout time, i saw a few counters without cashier, with a sign "self checkout". Curious, i pushed my trolley over & begin exploring. The items with barcode were easy.... I scanned the barcode with the scanner & was quite pleased with myself until i got on to the vege & fruits.
What to do with them??! >o<
Seeing me poking around the machine, the staff came to my rescue. :p
There's a screen with item list like fruits & vege, where I select what I'm buying & weight the item on the scale, the system then generates price to pay. After summing up everything, all i need to do is swipe my EFTPOS card in the machine.
Voila!! my first self checkout is a success!! It's fun! :D
