still alive and well at CVS in Manhattan as of last week. using your own bag just instantly locks the machine, even if you want to place it on the floor. I just abandoned it and went to the real checkout.

Interesting. Around here they all have options for if you're using your own bag. You just hit the button and it tells you to put your bags on the machine, and then you go on with your life. Sad they haven't rolled that out everywhere.
