    Saw the same thing on Guinness in Aldi. Must be some automatic printer or something. Surely no sane person would make it!

      This was also in Aldi!

      Didn’t realise but apparently the price cards aren’t paper anymore, they’re e-ink now. Saw one change in front of my eyes and I thought I was seeing things! Must be some sort of dynamic pricing thing they do so that they’re always cheaper than whoever is cheapest or something.

        It changes based on who’s standing in front of it. They use facial recognition to look up your tax returns.

        That sounds like it kinda sucks. Imagine something is on sale and it just ends as you pick it up. You cant even tell the sales people what the sale price is since now the display changed…

          If they start adding these around here I’m going to start filming my shopping trips.
