Why are the price tags universal across all stores and all states, and centrally produced? Or if they aren't, surely each shop can print out their own price tag

Why are the price tags universal across all stores and all states, and centrally produced? Or if they aren't, surely each shop can print out their own price tags and add the appropriate tax then.
- techsupporter 12y agoPrice tags are one thing. The region-wide ads for Kroger saying "milk is on sale for $1.99/gal this week with your Kroger Card" are another. A broadcast TV ad like that might be visible in 10 or more different sales tax areas. Having worked in retail, I have several anecdotes from customers getting annoyed over even the smallest pricing discrepancies. I had one shopper complain about being charged less than the price in the mailed circular on the theory that the chosen product was of lesser quality than the advertised product.
