Anyone know of other stores, big or small, that have something like this? It’s literally been the reason I was a relatively loyal Woolies customer the last two or three years. I’ve always avoided Aldi because they don’t even have basic self-checkout. But nor do I really want to keep going to Woolies and Coles who apparently are actively undoing their advances, even if the point they’re going back to is a bit ahead of where Aldi is still at…
Aldi has almost fully converted to self checkout, in Adelaide. Not sure what it’s like in other cities but maybe worth checking again if you haven’t been for a while.
The Aldis in WA have self checkouts. But they’ve only been introduced over the past couple of years. Maybe it’s the same nationally? Worth another visit to see?
They’re pretty good ones, too - the bagging area holds four bags - which is sometimes enough for the whole shop. I don’t much love their camera right in your face, though.
Well, I went to an Aldi for a grocery shop for the first time today. Self-checkout was great! Not as nice as scan & go, which I’ll miss, but worth it. Cheers for the tip.
Not a fan of the bagging area though fwiw. It’s just an “area”, without hooks. I didn’t notice the camera thing. I think I’ve only ever really seen that at Coles.
Full list of stores closing this feature and those that are keeping it but without the mobile payment here.

Interesting. Thanks for the tip.

Same in Adelaide, almost all self checkouts now.
