- deathanatos 2y agoThe lack of a signal/data gets investigated, upon which you find out the store has no power.

- kortilla 2y agoNo it’s not. This isn’t a developing country. A grocery chain will see maybe one outage in 10 years that is bad enough to take out the store and internet+cell phone networks. Dispatching someone is absolutely more cost effective for these rare occasions.
