    28 stores is small by UK supermarket standards. Sainsbury’s alone have over 1400. I can’t reasonably consider Booths reflective of trends across the country, perhaps for the reasons you suggest.

    OP’s question as to whether the UK is rejecting self checkout on any level isn’t really addressed by the example in this article.

      Booths is basically unheard of anywhere else in the UK. The only reason I’ve heard of them is because the bald guy on TikTok that reviews the worst towns in the UK did a video on them.
