Digital Price Labels Rise: Benefit or Concern?

Digital price labels are now used in many stores. They are replacing the old paper labels. A new study says these labels do not raise prices very much.

Some people still do not trust the new labels. They think stores will change prices too often. The labels let stores change prices quickly from a computer.

Some lawmakers are worried about digital labels. They have introduced bills to limit or ban them. One lawmaker wants to start a conversation about possible misuse.

Researchers say that people's fears are not correct. Their study found very little price changing. They looked at prices before and after stores used digital labels.

Digital price labels have some good points. They can help stores save time and reduce waste. Some stores are using them to show recipes or lower prices on food that is expiring soon.
