I use reusable bags. I have to be very slow and deliberate getting the bag ready in the bagging area or it’ll flag me.

I use reusable bags too, I first scan and rest the products on the weighting area, and after paying quickly introduce all the products into my bag. It takes a bit longer but it’s way less problems for the workers and me, and it’s still faster than going through the regular checkout.
