Nah, the Stop n Shop I go to has portable scan guns, it's really the best. If I have to shop somewhere that doesn't have these, it will ruin my day. For the uninitiated, it's a portable bar code scanner with a little screen on it. You scan items as you take them off the shelf, put them in your bags, and when you are done shopping there is a "checkout" button on the gun/screen that generates a barcode. Scan that barcode at the self checkout, pay, and be on your way. It is peak grocery shopping efficiency.

Some stores (where I live) have the scanner, some use an app to scan. Works the same but they don't need to maintain the scanners with you using your phone. Finding a store that doesn't have the option to scan as you shop is quite rare nowadays (where I live).
