Scan It! For Stop & Shop shoppers

I just went to S&S tonight and had FUN shopping! Chat Icon Chat Icon

They gave me a scanner and bags when I walked in and as I shopped, I scanned each item and put it into a bag. Then at the end, I just scanned at the self-checkout, paid and I was good to go!

Too bad DH wasn't with me, he loved scanning things when we registered for our wedding Chat Icon

It's only at select stores for now, but maybe they will have it in all stores soon!

Oh, and the bonus is, they have specialized savings just for you (it links to your S&S card) AND you save $1 for doing it!

I love that, I was wondering when they were going to bring it to the states.

I saw that the other day, they were setting it up. Do they give you the plastic bags or the recyclable ones?

You can use either. Or, even better when you bring your own bags! 5 cents for each bag you bring Chat Icon

The Stop N Shop down by my dads has this. I asked my sister if she's tried it yet and she said "No".
I think during the week, we'll go grocery shopping together. I really wanna try it!Chat Icon

I have heard of this in other chains on different parts of the country & DH has been waiting. They don't have that by us yet though. ( I thin we were behind the times in getting Peapod too.)

Which S& S do you go to?

I was at the S&S in Riverhead. The guy said today was the first day they had it working.

It doesn't. You are subject to random audits. I guess it's a trust thing.

We have had that out here in RI for about 6 months! It is VERY convenient!

They have had this at the Giant near me (same company as Stop and Shop) for a few weeks now. I love it! Makes checking out so easy!

I wish my SnS had it! I spent so much time there today, especially getting the whole cart up to be checked out and then bagging it all!

I'm surprised the store near me (Medford) doesn't have it, considering Medford has Starbucks, a bank (which is in the process of being replaced by another bank), and a Peapod warehouse.

I heard about East Islip and I think South Setauket (the S&S near 347 & Nicolls - not the one on 25A) has it.

I don't think the one in Bay Shore has it yet. I may have to check it out at the East Islip one!

How do you scan fruit and vegetables since they have to be weighed?

They have computerized scales with a label printer that you look up the item on. Then you just weigh the item, print the sticker, then put the sticker on the bag.
