You Need I.D To Buy Baking Soda In Michigan?

One of the biggest complaints by shoppers has been the transition to self-checkout stations rather than traditional cashier lanes. Most of this has to do with people feeling like they are doing the work of the store and that it slows the process down as people take their sweet time checking themselves out. Another area of concern is that workers will then check shoppers' receipt to ensure they didn't steal anything.

Many are saying that there would be no need to check our receipts if the store still had cashier's working and scanning everything for us. Another annoying part of cashing yourself out through self-checkout is when you scan something that needs an age verification you must wait for the attendant to come over and swipe your ID. This can be tedious especially when you are buying something you didn't think you'd be ID'd for.
