Grocers run coupons and promos to help achieve price discrimination based on purchase timing preferences.

Possibility: Develop a "loyalty" program where customers provide a member id like a phone number at checkout. Anonymous shoppers get the worst pricing. Everybody else voluntarily signs up for price discrimination disguised as rewards.
