I was recently in Zurich and entered a small shop that was honor system. Scan and pay for your own items, no staff. Small food items, drinks, wine available.

Might be different since there could be cameras or some other form of accountability, but I found it interesting.




Would police every bother investigating simple theft from such a store..

Even if there is excellent video and identification?
