Morrisons customers no longer have to queue outside supermarkets thanks to sneaky new system

Supermarket giant Morrisons has today confirmed details of its new system which will means customers no longer need to worry about queuing outside its stores.

From today, Morrisons will be introducing Speedy Shopping for customers doing smaller ‘basket shops’ so they can get in store and complete their shop quicker.

A new separate Speedy Shopping lane will be introduced outside of all Morrisons stores and those shopping without a trolley will be invited straight in.

To make things fair for customers doing a big shop, Morrisons has said it will invite three 'basket' customers inside for every 'trolley' customer.

This will be managed by clear signage and Marshals at the front of stores.

Additionally, inside Morrisons stores there will be dedicated 'Speedy Shopper' checkouts and more self-scan tills will be turned into ‘card only’.

The new system hopes to ensure customers wanting to shop for a small basket of essentials will queue for less time outside of the store, and checkout quicker once inside.

David Potts, chief executive of Morrisons, said: “It’s fair that customers doing smaller shopping trips should queue for less time too.

"Speedy Shopping will ensure that Morrisons stores will be more convenient for customers wanting a small basket of items."
