Just a few years after self-checkouts started becoming ubiquitous at grocers and big box stores in Canada, a few brands have backtracked on their rap…

on their rapid adoption of the technology, with Dollarama serving as the latest place where customers have noticed the removal of relatively recently-installed kiosks.One shopper noticed just this past week that their local Dollarama at Dufferin Mall is among the outlets that have followed suit.In speaking with blogTO, Nicolas Bello wondered if the sudden withdrawal, as in the case of other retailers, may have had to do with an uptick in stealing.

"But I'm of two minds. They definitely had plenty of cashiers to make up for it, so it creates that kind of employment. However, it may just be seasonal and those jobs don't pay much or offer room for growth. Perhaps trained cashiers are faster than customers, especially at busy holiday season."What’s more interesting is there were only 2 cashiers and 10 super busy selfcheckout terminals.
