This man noticed a new digital pricing system at his local grocery store

So he decided to document how prices can be changed throughout the day depending on demand
So these are the new digital price screens. So the whole goal of these is to adjust the prices on the items as they become more in demand. So, for example, right now, these are 90¢.

Let’s say around 6:00, or during the busier time, these will go up to a dollar. They’ll fluctuate based off of demand. So these are connected to the WiFi and to the registers.
Image credits:Once the inventory on these items becomes low, the prices will start to shoot up to $1.20. Um, they’re gonna start incorporating all these all over.

So it’s pretty crazy. I’ll come back later on in the day and you’ll see this go up and down in price.
You’ll see it go as low as, like, 89¢, which is pretty crazy.

That 10% thing is crazy. You’re walking in there, you’re like, ‘dang, this is cheap, this is cheap, this is cheap.’ And then the little fine print, 10% at register. Check out 10% on top of that, on top of the taxes.

Yeah, it should be illegal. But then again, if you look at cars, at dealerships, if you look at gas, gas changes every day. Look at the rent…
