I mean the biggest question is why build them with all those registers when they never have the intention to use them...

I don't work in retail but I have an understanding of that type of business model.
My thought is they build as many as possible for that extreme situation. Better to have them then not, they are probably fairly cheap to put in. Also, it is cheaper to build the station then man the station.
I bet on Black Friday at Wal-mart most if not all are manned.
Plus I bet they are used as a security measure as well, limits the amount of open space in front of the store to get out.
