Well, to put it bluntly, this sucks. I was in our local Aldi store earlier today and they were in the midst of going to all digital pricing. That is, there's essentially a bar code on the shelf under each group of boxes of items, or under the 2% milk rack, etc., which you scan with a smart phone to get the price. No printed prices are on the shelves, and won't be, according to the employee I spoke with.

Thanks for your reply. I guess there’s always a need for some type of eyeball shopping. I’m sorta picky about fruits and vegetables.
But the delivery option really is convenient for the stuff one buys every week or month.

Aldi has bags - at least the one near me - you have to buy them, of course - (seems like a good thread for me to post these pictures again)
Amazon One - Palm-print scanner - It is not the Mark of the Beast - just a precursor; a warm-up; a dress rehearsal
Pay with your hand - Forerunner to the coming Mark of the Beast (Revelation 13) Using one's hands to pay for food. A boxed "convenience store" (Hudson Nonstop, LAX airport, Dallas Love Field airport), to Arbor Trails Whole Foods (Austin, Texas), to paying for food at Panera Bread, to other Whole Foods stores (owned by Amazon).
Yes, I use Amazon for shopping from time-to-time but this "scan-your-hand-to-pay" is already alive and in operation - no doubt it will continue to expand / grow in acceptance. The conditioning (intentional or unintentional, it will make no difference) has started.
I'm sure the people in the pics think they're showing the latest "cool thing" - possibly mocking and laughing at any reference to the "Mark of the Beast" - this is just a sampling of the pictures I found.
By the time the actual Mark of the Beast, these kinds of payment systems will be fully-embedded in society I think.

The world is not there - YET. But the conditioning, intentional or unintentional - it will make no difference. Fast, easy, secure, convenient. IMHO, cash will be outlawed. Digital Currency 100% will be the future. /Captain Obvious

Why should we even bother to pay, anymore?

And a second round of pictures (after the Bible verses):
Acts 2:38
New King James Version
38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2%3A38&version=NKJV
John 3:17-18
New King James Version
17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be Saved.
18 He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+3%3A17-18&version=NKJV
Romans 10:9-10
New King James Version
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be Saved.
10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto Salvation.

Anyone still think this ISN'T coming? Because it most certainly is. BUT it will not happen until the middle of the 7 years of 'Peace and Security' (which is also coming)

There’s a bunch of people who don’t.
My guess is stores will have less staff, fewer checkouts of any type and put more people watching the front of the store.
Basically, you won’t be able to get in the store without a phone / palm registration at the entrance. The thefts will necessitate that and stores in areas with high theft will simply be closed permanently.
