Self checkout machine ate my $20 bill and then froze up
Was at the Safeway on Broadway last night and the stupid self checkout swallowed my cash then just sat there with a blank screen for 5 minutes. Had to flag down a teenager to open the machine and get my money back, anyone else have these things just die on you mid transaction?

Honestly I used to defend self checkout until stuff like this happens.

Read a study last week that said self checkout machines fail about 12% of the time during payment. Shops are pushing them so hard but they're clearly not ready for prime time. Always use card now after my $50 got stuck last month.
