The major supermarket chain where I live has a "shop and go" system. You get a battery powered barcode scanner that you take round and scan items before you put them in your trolley, then hand it over to an operator at the end. They can download the list of items to the till, then you pay and leave.
They have a "random spot check" system where sometimes they pick a few random items out of your trolley and check that they are on the list. I'm imagining that some people get away with theft, but it's probably not a lot more than people who are going to steal normally anyway
I've tried those a few times, what trips me up is that they don't do well (or I don't know how to) with -30% and the nightly -60% stuff. That stuff is vital to me
