Lets face it. We all know why they are getting rid of self-checkouts. It's the same reason in some cities the entire store is "locked up". (((Niggers))) Archive: https://archive.today/edsO7 From the post: >>Target is quietly pulling self-checkout stations from more stores as backlash grows and concerns over theft mount. Just last March, the retailer — America’s sixth-largest by sales — committed to installing self-checkouts in all 2,000 US locations. But since then, Target has walked back that plan through a series of quiet U-turns. While the company has declined to comment, shoppers and employees are reporting kiosks being removed, item limits imposed, and self-checkout lanes frequently left closed — all signs that the chain is rethinking its approach amid a spike in theft. Other major retailers have also shifted course. Last year, Walmart removed self-checkouts and replaced them with traditional manned lanes. This week, a customer said their local Target had abruptly removed all self-checkouts overnight. A photo showed roped-off kiosks and scuff marks left on the floor where the machines had been.
