items will be marked with a price, not a bar code?
if items are marked, checkout will have manual cash registers so they know how much to charge?

Judging by past experience with our New Generations of retail store cashiers and making change for a cash transaction, the transition from bar code to barter is going to be almost instantaneous.

Add the spectacle of those same individuals attempting simple addition simply adds a dose of humor.....and figuring Sales Tax turns it into a farce.

If the grocery store is trying to clear out his inventory before it spoils I'll bet he figures it out.
