I learned after a software update my local store now glitched if you put down a bag before you start scanning, it won’t let you proceed past the first item bagging without override. So now I wait and put the bag down with the first item so it won’t notice the specific bag weight and won’t force the person to help.

My local store has the "OWN BAG" button but it gives you like two and a half seconds to get the bags down before it sounds an alert and the attendant has to come over. Since my bags are always buried under the shit I've put in the cart, it's an impossible task.

Good idea would be to keep them on top in anticipation of the same prompt you receive every time when you are there.

I mean of course, but there's nowhere to put them while I shop other than in the cart, which means either I have to pick them up every time I put something in the cart, or else I put stuff on top of them. If they had a little pocket for your bags, that would be cool.
