H-E-B is testing a (sort of) new way for customers to check out after their shopping trips. The Texas-based grocery store is piloting "Fast Scan" technology. Christoken Johnson, an H-E-B shopper, first shared a photo of the check-out option at an H-E-B plus! in Schertz on July 16. "All you have to do is run your basket through and the machine (is) going to scan everything inside the basket and pay the amount on the receipt," he said online in explaining what he saw. H-E-B confirms to MySA that the Fast Scan technology is currently in a pilot phase exclusively with the store's partners, or employees.
