The Benefits of Modern Pricing Guns

MONARCH 1131Fifty years ago they had no idea what modern price tagging guns would become. If they could have had the chance to see a Monarch 1131, they would probably have been frightened and aghast at how fast it shoots Garvey labels. A single modern pricing gun is like twelve old-school pricing guns.

But back then everything was slower. They didn’t even have text messages. So if you were going to meet someone at the grocery store, you’d have to rely on chance alone. Traffic? Too bad. You don’t know what happened to your friend. So you start to food shop without her. And that’s when all kinds of miscommunication goes down.

Same thing with the pricing guns of yore. Customers would have to find someone in charge to ask what the price of the preserves is, because the clerk hasn’t gotten around to adding the Garvey labels. He’s still in aisle one, doing the cereal. Sure there was more opportunity for face to face interactions. But when you’re at the supermarket, is that what you really need? Will that set your wheels in motion? Or are you trying to get in and out quickly? Yeah. So embrace modern technology and the Monarch 1131.
