Why people are split
The tippers say a dollar costs little and they'd rather not look cheap with someone standing right there. The never side points out that nobody served them, they scanned their own groceries, and they're not tipping a machine.

FAQ
Do you have to tip at a self-checkout kiosk?

Where does a kiosk tip go?
It depends on the business. If you're not sure, ask the staff whether tips go to the workers.
