It’s not a universal replacement for a clerk, but it can be very useful.
I can be through the whole process at CVS (with some random item like a birthday card) in about 30 seconds.

I no longer shop at CVS.
You really have to be able to judge to self checkout ability of the people in line. Some will get stuck for 5 min before a clerk comes to do it for them.
