Is this one of these "unstaffed" / "no till" stores where you have to have an amazon account to enter and they see everything you pick up and automatically charge it to your account as you leave the store, in which case the cameras make sense as that's how these stores operate

Yup. It's camera analytics, not security

Yes it is. It still has dedicated staff and has 1-2 regular check out lanes. I’ve been shopping here since they opened and it amazes me how accurate this system is.
Their pricing is not the most competitive in the area but they’re in line with our local Albertsons, Trader Joe’s, Vons and Ralph’s. The upsides are that they carry Whole Foods brands and their meat department carries prime beef and an extensive selection of fresh fish and seafood.
