[03:15] IsambardPrince [03:15] IsambardPrince Earlier in the metacrisis, the CEO of Kroger admitted they were increasing prices faster than the actual rate of inflation. Now the company has partnered with Microsoft on electronic shelf labels that change prices throughout the store immediately and without warning whenever they feel like doing it so nobody will even know about what they can expect to pay when they get in there. From everything I've heard it's been examples (when [03:15] IsambardPrince Walmart was talking about it) of how they can use this to basically extract more money from customers, like if it's a hot day out they'd charge significantly more for ice cream and bottled water. [03:15] IsambardPrince [03:15] IsambardPrince Making it impossible to know what anything will cost means that it will be impossible to budget for food based on "roughly what it cost me last week". Conceivably, the shelf price could change while it's in your cart and before you get to the register.

[03:15] IsambardPrince [03:15] IsambardPrince Walmart's website has a warning that the price you pay may be different than the price in the store, and so does Aldi, but Aldi does that because they do grocery pickup with Instacart and Aldi has never tried to hide costs inside the grocery prices using gimmicks when they can avoid it. [03:16] IsambardPrince [03:16] IsambardPrince I feel I may be taking even more of our shopping to Aldi as the shelf label tells me how much I would pay and it's the same price anyone else pays. [03:16] IsambardPrince [03:16] IsambardPrince I wish Kroger will have as much luck using Microsoft stuff as Delta Airlines had.
