"When buying groceries—food and non-alcoholic beverages, pet food or supplies, disposable paper or plastic products, soap, household cleaners, laundry products, or light bulbs—you must be charged the lowest displayed price, whether on the sticker, scanner, website, or app.
If the lowest price you saw for an item is $10 or less, and that lowest price is not what you were charged or not what appeared on the in-aisle price scanner, the first item should be FREE. If the lowest price you saw for an item is more than $10, and that lowest price is not what you were charged or not what appeared on the in-aisle price scanner, you should receive $10.00 off the first item."

Not to say it's not happening in a Mass based Dollar Stores but you could be walking away with a lot of free stuff and it would be enough of a deterrent to stomp out the practice. I've had it happen at grocery stores usually at their suggesting.
Additionally, we do offer medication tracking and other digital caregiving tools. I will also mention like others here, it is important to have things like HIPAA best practices in place for services like this. At Cariloop for example we follow HIPAA best practices, GDPR compliance, and are SOC 2 certified.
Makes you think will what you build keep the same interface or at least backwards compatibility 50 years from now? Probably not and most wouldn't blame you. But it brought us a lot of joy to take things we bought in target that day and connect them to those old sets.
We're a company that supports caregivers by providing digital tools, personalized guidance from expert Care Coaches, and access to an integrated care provider network and community.
Stack is Angular, Node (loopback), MongoDB, Kubernetes in AWS.
