i also bring my own shopping bags. the grocery store here (the only one, a walmart) disabled the scales because they don’t have the staffing to deal with all the false positives, i guess… but anyway, i’ve gotten to just taking the wireless hand scanner (which is much quicker than the register’s scanner) and scanning stuff in the cart and then bagging it right away–all right in the cart. only produce gets put up by the register, since it needs to be weighed anyway.
