And if you want to benefit from their savings, buy stock in the company, enjoy their lower prices, and in Co-op's case become a member.

That is such a piddling amount to benefit compared to the amount of time that is wasted by these things. And these things will not result in lower prices.

You're acting like it's onerous to scan you're on groceries but it's not. Plus, it's not like standing there watching somebody else do it is giving me this great break or something. Heck I'd rather do it myself if for no other reason than it's more interesting than standing there waiting for them.

I'd rather be in and out as fast as possible when it comes to paying and these things slow everything down. Even in optimal conditions they're slower than a cashier. But when you've got a large order and are using your own recyclable bags along with coupons it becomes a gong show.
