Comment on Walmart Is Putting Digital Labels That Change Prices Instantly on Every Store Shelf in America
Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 12 hours agoI’ve worked retail and one of the things that baffled me was just how wasteful price tags were.
They change SO OFTEN and it’s so much paper and plastic just tossed it the trash every time. Never even thought about it until I worked at a store and had to change them.

God, right?! I could fill a bag full of the things nearly every day when I was cleaning before they switched over! I literally had a little bin I’d save them up in to take home to use as kindling for the fire pit cause they’d already been replaced. Though, I think the lack of waste is more a pleasant side effect than a reason why these companies did it. Either way, it’s still a positive!
