Self-checkouts aren’t going away at Target, but they are changing. At Dollar General, though, it’s a slightly different story. The two retailers have become the latest to rethink their self-checkout strategies, as concerns about customer service, speed, efficiency and theft prompt new questions about whether self-checkout is always the best idea. Target has decided self-checkout is still a good idea – if you have ten items or fewer. The retailer has decided to go national with a regional test it began last fall, limiting the use of self-checkouts to customers who have just a handful of items ..read more

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Hope you don’t like coupons. You may be wearing green this weekend, but you won’t be saving any green.

ALDI announced late last week that it has formally completed its purchase of Winn-Dixie owner Southeastern Grocers, bringing some 400 stores into its portfolio. But along with the stores, their inventory and employees, comes some baggage – including a proposed class-action lawsuit accusing ALDI’s new acquisition of running “an unfair and deceptive BOGO scheme.” Winn-Dixie has asked a judge to throw out the lawsuit, claiming the plaintiffs have no basis for complaint.
