This is why Aldi is raping stores to death left and right.

Is that QR code even going to work?
That print quality looks horrible

The humiliation rituals will proceed until the normies lose their shit and this all boils over

They quietly omitted the steps where you have to sign up after installing the app with your email and/or phone number so they can track and spam you too.. didnt they?
>>
They have all your data and will use it to dynamically price everything based on what they think is the maximum amount you will pay. Just wait until the major grocery chains start doing it.
>>
>>109259842
I don't think it's gonna happen bro.
>>
>>109259853
Thats actually not all bad.
>walk in store
>scan a bunch of prices
>leave without buying anything

Repeat until prices are lower.
If that doesnt work uninstall the app and never return.

>>109259854
They're already going ballistic at the flock cameras and data centers. It's starting to even scare me, bro.

Normies are getting PISSED at all of this AI garbage, indians, and hyperinflation.

I'm pretty sure this is illegal in where I live.

>>109259842
The sooner you realize they enjoy it the better. "Oh it knows where I am and what I want to buy, how convenient!". The same goes for mass surveillance. They think it keeps them safe rather than lining them up for the unthinkable if they ever step out of line even by accident. There's no reasoning with them. Theyd rather believe some guy in a fusion center 25 miles away is stopping the next tragedy rather than reading their sexts out loud to his coworkers and their vote counts the same as yours

I mean even many people on /g/ are thinking like that already.

They'll calm down in 2 years once you sell it as something that catches bigots.

This is the same shit that was happening during COVID but there's less outcry over it now.
>>
>>109259825
I turn on location spoofing in developer settings and use a gps spoofing app to set my location to my home. It will give lower prices because they want you to come into the store. I then buy all of the things I want by walking through the store and scanning the barcode with my camera then adding to cart and buying with in store pickup as the option kek

What do we even do when voting doesn't help anymore?

What shit? Articulate your grievances

I like how they want you to download their app but there is no link to the apk on their website

The sad part is that voting could work but you are probably too much of a coward to vote for someone who isnt shilled 24/7 on CNN because oh noes if i dont vote for zogdrone B then zogdrone A will le win!!

I went to 5 grocery stores two days ago to find one without electronic price tags.

Algorithmic price discrimination is retarded

Fucking entry gate wont open before a default wait unless i tip my cap up so it can get a facial recog on me and loads my buyer profile, camera in every lane, cameras at the checkout

Commie rent seeking flaggots

>see a sign for downloading their app
>my fucking cell phone signal (AT&T AND COMCAST) isn't strong enough to load up a page because the same store put a faraday cage in their entire fucking building so you can't look shit up at all
>can't even look up a competetitor while at the store to compare prices
no, fuck that shit KEK

>>109259825
You'd have to be a fucking retard to step foot inside a Kohl's to do anything aside from visiting the Amazon returns desk.
>>
>>109259825
Kohls has always been shit, they were one of the first stores to get rid of price tags and make you walk to one of those scanner stations to figure out what something costs 20 years ago.

What hellhole town do you live in, and what store was it?

In the US, algorithmic pricing is illegal for anything that can be purchased with food stamps. Stores that accept SNAP must give everyone the exact same price. No higher. No lower. No store is willing to risk their ability to accept SNAP, so no store is ever going to adjust food prices based on the buyer. This of course only applies to food items. If Walmart wants to adjust underwear prices based on how you're walking, only a few states have made that illegal.

>>109260040
yes lets bully the minwage clerk who is guilty for all this
>>
>>109262111
I am sure the clerks gets paid regardless but the manager will eventually notice clerks spend more time bringing products back to the shelves or answering price questions
>>
>>109259869
i don't really want to spend all my time visiting the grocery store

What's the point of having prices I just buy the same thing anyway
>>
>>109259825
Printing prices on paper is bad for the environment goyim. You WILL download the app and you WILL pay inflated prices to support the holocaust memorial fund
>>
>>109262611
the holowhat? log off gramps

>>109262134
An individual store manager isn’t setting that policy, it’ll be coming from HQ. At most you could say the store manager has more scope to escalate shit but lol lmao, even.

nowadays there are e-ink price tags that look like paper and can still be changed dynamically.
