@glowl @libroraptor @Gustodon @georgepenney Yes, I think there's some variation. Having stuff packed for you is the norm in Australia. Customers bring their own re-usable bags too. But we do have Aldi where you have to pack your own.

@anne_twain @glowl @Gustodon @georgepenney Writing the prices on everything with a shop-supplied marker pen – was a branding innovation in New Zealand in the 1980s, I think. The Write Price chain made their identity that way. They faded away. Now Pak-n-Save is about packing your own in bare-bones warehousing, a bit like Aldi. Woolworths is a mix, depending on who's on staff at what time of day and what mood they're in. New World and Fresh Choice are still full-service.
