And I guess securities don't have any "this offer good for [x seconds]" on them. That's totally counter-intuitive to laymen, and speaking as a professional layman, I'm pretty sure I'm getting screwed because of it.
Electronic labels - you should be able to reserve a price for a time. Like, you want that shaving cream for $1.45, then you should be able to scan your Walmart member card at the electronic label to reserve that price. Should be valid for an hour, or a day, for up to X number of them.
...because the nightmare of picking it off the shelf, and the price is different when you check-out is just awful for consumers.
...and just to ramble a bit more... Sometimes it's cheaper for me to DRIVE to City A, fly back to my town, and then fly to my real destination than it is to book a flight from my town to my real destination. That's crazy, and I'm totally getting screwed, and I hope laws are enacted to stop that.
