Scan It


.

1. Notice whether the supermarket has prices on the items or whether the pricing is dependent on scanners. 2. If there are no prices on the items, notice the prices listed on the shelves. 3. Assign each child the job of remembering the price of a few items, particularly those listed as being on special offer. 4. Being aware of the prices of items will help you verify that the scanners are working properly and that the total is accurate when you go to the check-out. The ever-increasing use of technology in the supermarket puts the burden on you to beware. Your protection lies in having strong mental math skills.
