They do it at my stores too but I normally will start bagging myself
just to help out. This is when there is no separate person bagging
(rare), just the cashier does it after scanning all the food. I'll bag
until the cashier gets a total then I'll let them finish bagging while I
do the debit card thing. I don't mind helping out a bit. It speeds up
the line for other customers behind me and the cashier does appreciate
the help.
