Workers yesterday removed one of the self-checkout lanes at Key Food on Avenue A and Fourth Street...
Coming in its place: A good old-fashioned staffed register, expected to be installed by the end of the day.
As we first noted on April 22, Key management wants to enhance the checkout experience.
"We felt that another standard lane would help reduce some of the backup we've seen at the staffed registers," a high-level Key Foods source previously told us.
What else can you expect here? The rest of the aging self-checkout terminals will soon be getting the boot. The new models will be arranged in a single pass-through lane with upgraded technology to speed up the process and enhance security.
The move should also provide more streamlined access to the mysteriously popular canisters of Keebler Export Sodas that line the wall along the checkout area.

It is good that they are upgrading their currently very frustrating and difficult to use self-checkout terminals. I hope they get the same ones used at Wegmans which are a breeze to use, very easy and quick.
Thanks Stacie - always on the scene with Key Foods!
I laughed out loud
And there was much rejoicing.
