      That’s the transition period.

      If you believe in competition than the self-checkout creates the opportunity to lower prices which will be used.

        Not here, we have had collusion and price fixing amongst competitors lawsuit already. One big chain owns the competition, and also owns land rights with no other stores allowed to open in a certain radius.
