Turns out giving everyone's most hated machine a festive makeover doesn't make anyone like it better.

Tesco's self-service machines have made many enemies since their introduction around a decade ago because of their fondness for shouting about unexpected items. Well now, in an effort to make the self-service experience more pleasant, the supermarket has called upon the cheery talents of Santa. https://twitter.com/Mathlondon/status/674264710812983296 But, it turns out, people don't like festive cheer when they're stressed. In fact, people have been resoundingly Grinchy about it. https://twitter.com/LiloJGreenhill/status/674247486614216704 https://twitter.com/OhShaun/status/674195312135786496 https://twitter.com/claudiairis_/status/674169003401695232 https://twitter.com/ryanhillss/status/674127981837701120 https://twitter.com/Ariadne_Griffin/status/674244377724755969 https://twitter.com/Tesco/status/674133487759269888 https://twitter.com/crtnyrynr/status/674538325764677632
