Krogers is the same way. Bazillions of little sale tags. Some poor worker has to meticulously change those things every week.
“Some poor worker has to meticulously change those things every week.”
That occurred to me looking at thousands and thousands of those “special” price tags all over the place. I think on some aisles, over two-thirds of the products have the “special” price tag (reminds me of the old saw ‘if everyone is special, then no-one is special’).
And they expect that poor worker to have 100% accuracy, too. I would go bonkers taking down the old tags and putting up the new ones every week. I wouldn’t last a day doing that.
It’s ironic — thousands of the old fashioned printed “SPECIAL PRICE” tags on the shelves, but they want you to go all digital. Make up your minds!!
For a low-margin, high volume business, they sure are succeeding in making it very complicated.
