ST. LOUIS - Schnuck Markets, Inc. is debuting two new options for customers who are looking for convenience while shopping at Schnucks and Eatwell Market stores. Previously, customers wishing to redeem Schnucks Rewards points or purchase gift cards at Schnucks had to visit a traditional check lane. Now these two actions can be completed when using self checkouts that are available at a vast majority of the company’s stores. “We continue to listen to our customers’ feedback and work to bring them more efficient shopping experiences in our stores,” said Schnucks IT Director Michael Wait. “Shoppers who prefer the convenience of self checkout can now enjoy the same perks and products as those who use our traditional check lanes.” To redeem Schnucks Rewards Points at self checkout, customers simply tap the “Schnucks Rewards” button on the terminal when ready to pay, open their Schnucks Rewards app, select “My Rewards” on the app
