The checkout stands have a whole new look. Even the grocery receipts look different. They are thermal imprinted for greater legibility. Useful information such as the store location and hours can be placed at the top and bottom. The receipt even tells how long it took the cashier to check your order.
Cashiers can now scan in the majority of coupons.
In the past cashiers had to enter coupons by hand. Today, more than 60 percent of coupons are bar-coded for scanning and that number is climbing rapidly. The construction of the new checkouts is better for customers and employees. Cashiers face the customers and the reach across the scanner is shorter, making for faster scanning and less physical strain. When commissary stores worldwide are up on the new checkout system, DeCA will be equal to, or ahead of, many retail grocery chains.
