Conversely, my local Sam's club is doubling down, but...weirdly. They changed the layout of the self checkouts, and then removed several normal lanes so there's only 2 normal lanes at all. Here, Sam's is frequented most by older folks who hate self checkout. It was an incredibly stupid move.

I tried it twice at IKEA and it's so fucking shit and they still need to have people there to assist when you have a problem, IT'S THE SAME FUCKING THING JUST SLOWER.

I never use self-checkouts but I observe them while walking by. I wait in line for a clerk at a cash register while all those in the self-checkout line seem to have a personal assistant.

Most of those who have one don't plan to have an other one? Ok, but is that supposed to be weird?
