California. We have the self- serve areas, but half the time they are not working. And tell me--- how come foreign countries always seem to have the technology before we do? <br />I would live to see my local supermarkets start this system and it might earn them some customer loyalty!fordladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27945607.post-5059621296385957612009-04-19T14:14:00.000-04:002009-04-19T14:14:00.000-04:00I saw this at Stop and Shop recently.

For example, shopper puchares 50 items, doesn't scan three expensive items, and leaves the store eith his purchase. They did say teat they have the right to audit the contents of the cart but this will not allow them to prosecute for fraud as the shopper can just claim device malfunction and intent to defraid could never be proven. I'm sure much thought went to into this before the tool was introducted but I was wondering if some has an explabntion for it. Maybe an expectation of additional theft versus cost saving to the store nets out to an advantage.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />CarlUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03420129590536923434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27945607.post-21274462435702516262009-04-14T21:21:00.000-04:002009-04-14T21:21:00.000-04:00Supermarket-style techno, free...looks like a "ste...Supermarket-style techno, free...looks like a "steal" to me.anutterNWOpuppethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16722506167165042462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27945607.post-5987904751321156552009-04-14T16:16:00.000-04:002009-04-14T16:16:00.000-04:00It's very cool - we've had this in Sweden for a co...It's very cool - we've had this in Sweden for a couple of years now, and as you say, it's an incredible improvement over having to run everything by the cashier. I don't know what I'd do if I went into a store today and had to stand in lines again.. :)fnordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06759171406477377558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27945607.post-1602857687990862862009-04-14T13:03:00.000-04:002009-04-14T13:03:00.000-04:00I'm jealous!

I would LOVE to have a running total as I shop and be able to roll out the door as others are ploppin their stuff on the Belt that Leads to Hell.auntjonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11090226128263928965noreply@blogger.com
