UK supermarket chain Booths is doing away with self-checkout stations in almost all its stores. AdvertisementAdvertisementBooths, a high-end supermarket chain in the UK, is swapping out its self-checkout stations with manned cashiers in the majority of its stores. The chain will retain self-checkout stations in only two out of its 28 stores, according to the BBC. Booths is believed to be the first UK supermarket chain that's doing away with self-checkout stations, according to the BBC. By eliminating those small interactions between customers and cashiers, self-checkout stations could also be contributing to a broader loneliness epidemic .

☆ Super Bowl showdown to provide betting bonanza
  + stars: | 2023-02-11 | by ( Frank Pingue | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
Feb 11 (Reuters) - The Super Bowl has long been the single biggest sports betting event of the year in the United States and Sunday's showdown in Glendale, Arizona could reach new heights as wagering on the NFL's championship game has exploded in popularity. "The fact that the Super Bowl is being played in a state where you can legally bet on sports was almost unthinkable five years ago," American Gaming Association (AGA) President and CEO Bill Miller told Reuters. "There is important symbolism and economics around the fact that a Super Bowl is being held in a state where sports betting is legal, no question about that." A survey by the AGA, a trade group for the U.S. casino industry, showed a record 50.4 million American adults, or about 20% of the population, are expected to bet $16 billion on the Super Bowl. "It isn't necessarily something new as far as the Super Bowl but I think we are paying more attention to it now because more people have access to bet."

With inflation near record highs, cash-strapped consumers have started to tip less — especially when it comes to fast casual dining and carryout. About 17% of Americans are tipping less due to inflation, while only 10% are tipping more, according to a recent survey of more than 1,000 people by PlayUSA. More than half, or 54%, also said they feel pressure to leave a tip when checking out on an iPad. Like many other businesses, the bakery uses a contactless and digital payment method, which prompts consumers to leave a tip when they pay. "Only around 1 in 5 people tip," Sirotkina estimated.
