I encountered these at a fairly typical Walgreens about 2 years ago. My initial reaction was "worst idea ever". I don't recall any of the screens not working, but it did make me feel like the entire shopping experience was worse, and the screens added no value". I will sometimes buy a drink at a drugstore when picking up a prescription or some sundry items, but these screens just discourage me from wasting time with that whole process, the UX is really bad. If they were playing ads I would actively avoid that entire aisle.
- bombcar 3y agoThe point isn't to make your experience better. It's so they can coerce the brands inside the cooler to pay them to show them, just like (I suspect) much of Google Ads revenue is making sure that the top result for a search on "Coca Cola" isn't "Pepsi".
