Looks like you can scan items right at the store to see if there is a special on them.
Then you can ADD it to your coupon offers & get the discount. It seems like a great way to double-check some items, too.
Well, it also seems - "Technology has really gotten amazing ... and scary!" I had that very thought when I first saw this - but also thought, 'Oh, how convenient!')
Convenience will be the 'hook'. Guess once this becomes the norm ... the Country Stores will be on their way out.
The government will probably say they aren't safe because they can't verify the food or goods they're selling and "to keep the public safe" ...
They'll shut-down all the stores that don't comply with the new scanning system for goods and food ... how's that for a partial synopsis on an "end times" movie?
It also reminds me of our discussion yesterday about Brian Houston's statement on Chrislam, only this time it's the economy instead of religion.
I used the whole quote, because it all applies here, too - no tolerance in this case for the 'little guy' running his Country Store (or Country Church!).
"You can really see the enemy's agenda developing ... such small and seemingly insignificant things ... but cumulatively they are paving the road to the one world religion (economic system in this case) ... where there will be absolutely no room for tolerance."
The scenario for the shutdown of stores that don't comply with the new scanning system for goods and food reminds me of the movie Idiocracy.
In one of the opening scenes, medical personnel get flustered and upset because the main character is 'un-scannable'!
Keeping us 'safe' from these 'unscannable' foods and goods will probably be the big lie they tell, too.
Just like they're keeping us safe from food like Raw Milk - which is actually so good for us. All of our ancestors drank this and lived - if not, we wouldn't be here.
That is always the lie ... "For your safety" .... whenever you hear that ... beware!
It's like the 'double-speak' written about in 1984. When they say safety, THAT'S when you need to be afraid for your safety!
It also reminds me of the verse about 'Peace and safety..." God just knows everything! :)
1 Thessalonians 5:3 "For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them..."
God's word is truly amazing ... it's all there for us to see ... you just have to be wanting to "seek" the truth ...
