    Honestly, I hate cold impersonal supermarkets and the whole concept of it. 90% of supermarkets is processed ready meal crap.

    We've got to the point where we don't need till staff, aside from when you get the 'unexpected item in baggage area'... soon it'll be like these Amazon shops, a "give me that" " i want that, i take that" walk in and grab it american style consumerism.Me Me Me, Want Want Want.

    Give me a proper market any day, local produce, raw ingredients, sense of community, sense of seasons, familiarity, personality, human interaction, "please"and "thank you's" and "how've you been?":
