My costco "self checkout" is really just an employee scanning your things and then you box them. Does move quicker than the standard lanes, though.

I went to Costco, did self checkout and an employee walked up and offered to do it and I was just what? Didn't really make sense to me.

I think it depends. Sometimes they are scanning everything, sometimes they just scan the large items.
