Comment on Walmart Is Putting Digital Labels That Change Prices Instantly on Every Store Shelf in America
halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 15 hours agoThere are rules about having to honor advertised prices.
Yes there are. And normally you’d go look at the price tag to prove the different advertised price vs register price. What do you do now that they can change that price instantly?

They have these at the local Canadian tire, they take 2-3 minutes to change the displayed price, flickering a dozen times as they do. Real slow epaper screens

This ^ All the grocery stores in my area have them and it has yet to be an issue.
Also, not sure if you know this, but apparently if you have the Crappy Tire app, you can get the tags to flash/blink if you’re looking for a product. Not sure how exactly it works on the customer’s end, but my mum was telling me about it lol
