Digital Store Shelving Labels

RCSS has started rolling out new digital labels. They are so cool.

O.k., I'm going to be the Negative Nellie.
So now this means
1. they can raise the prices faster
2. if you try to SCOP, they can "magically" change the shelf price before you get back to the shelf and check
3. if there are too many price matches, they can automatically adjust the price up, so the coupon does not give it to you for free (e.g. Resolve $2.00 and the $2.00 coupon we've been using).

I hope they play fair.

We've had them at an RCSS here in Winnipeg for over a year now. I hate them. They're super hard to read, especially on the lower shelves, they flash prices sometimes like when they have one of those buy 4 for $6 or $3 each. I find it super hard to find what's on sale too.. I'm so used to looking for the different coloured tags that seeing another digital display doesn't cut it.

I much prefer the regular paper labels and I honestly will go out of my way to avoid the store with the digital ones. They really are awful.

Thanks for the update.
Did you e-mail RCSS?

Like you, the yellow tags are helpful, especially when it's an RCSS Blow Out price. The digital prices won't help me spot the Blow Out price from a ways away.

Whole Foods has these but they also put SALE tags on Sale stuff so its easy to identify.
