This is just discrimination. They’re trying to figure out how to squeeze every last cent out of our pockets. They’ve already squeezed us as it is! If I can, I’ll avoid any place that does this.

I wonder how difficult it’ll be to mess with them. Can they be hacked? How easy can they be broken?

Edit: Actually, the only way I would accept this is if they had a database online where everyone could scan and scrape the data. If it was constantly being analyzed and they could prove they weren’t screwing people, then sure, why not. It actually might convince me to shop there more if that were the case. That would probably be more fair than what they do now. As it stands, it’s not like we can see how they change prices day to day all that efficiently. But I could see how they could use these to abuse prices a ton.
