Albertsons removing self-checkout from stores
Boise, Idaho -- Albertsons LLC said Friday it is eliminating the self-checkout lanes in all 217 stores, beginning this month.
According to the supermarket retailer, the self-checkout option precludes Albertsons from providing the desired level of customer service.
In place of self-checkout, which it introduced in its stores about 10 years ago, Albertsons said it is considering a modified express lane concept.
