Re: All purpose question and advice thread

Because that would take worker's time ($), resources to create the infrastructure to do that ($$), products to maintain it ($$$), and it's not the law. So why spend the $$$$$ for something they don't need to do?

As someone who works in a supermarket in Germany (who is very backward when it comes to money - cash is still King here), I wonder how so? The cash register knows what things cost in the end aka the "system" (for lack of better word) knows. We have mostly electronic price tags that change automatically every time a price changes.

I could see the difficulty if everything was paper tags- which still exist here in some stores - but you have to change those for sales anyways? Do tax fluctuate?

We still have paper tags. I've never seen a store not have paper tags. We don't change the tags for sales, we add a new "sale" tag with the new price next to the regular tag. Taxes can fluctuate, on all levels (county, city, state). Usually it's property and income taxes, but sales tax can change; mostly as added (and then expired) taxes on "vice" items like sugary drinks, tobacco products, snack foods, etc.

Is the store on wheels and moving through all those different locations? If not, then the level of taxes is predictable in each store.

No, but as I've explained since we only use paper tags, and the numbers differ with each store, and stores are re-arranged every few months, and there's no law saying they have to, stores aren't going to expend the energy and the resources to do it. They just aren't. No amount of "but it's more logical to do it this other way" will get them to spend money they don't absolutely have to.
