Albertsons bids self checkouts farewell

7/8/2011

BOISE, Idaho — Albertsons is pulling the plug on its self-checkout units, which will be replaced by standard "H" lanes or express lanes, the grocer has confirmed.


The 217-store grocer that operates in Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Louisiana, New Mexico, Texas and Utah has self-checkout units installed in roughly 100 of its stores. Those units will be removed by the end of the summer.


According to the grocer, the self-checkout units prevent it from providing the level of customer service it wants to offer its shoppers.
