Barcodes allow for better management of inventory as well as a decrease in
errors. This either increases profits or lowers prices or both.

Most shelf identifiers (barcodes) include not only the price of the item but
also a cost per unit. If one is the shopper in the family id behooves them
to pay attention to the price of the items they use.

In most cases for most families the food budget is the largest single
expenditure which is a variable and allows for some level of flexibility.
