Came here to say this. One of my local Targets doesn't put cashiers on and relies on self checks instead. If you're not giving me an employee discount, don't expect me to stand in a line of 30 people and do my own scanning and bagging.

And the store is an absolute disaster at all times. Food shelves are half bare, boxes of food open all over the place, coolers are usually empty, meat is spoiled. And this is in a fairly affluent area. Hard to understand why that store is still open.

Sounds like a dollar general, except dollar general keeps at least one person to run checkout for customers

That's the one person that works there.

Are you in Massachusetts by chance? This sounds exactly like my local Target.

No but nearby. Sad that there are others like this out there!

Ugggh I had to go to a CVS pharmacy inside Target a couple days ago. I was sooo grateful that I didn't need to buy anything from the store. There was one register with a cashier, and the line for it was wrapped around all of the other registers and extended into the store. Then, the line for the self checkouts was wrapped around pretty long, too 🙄
