It comes after news that yellow sticker bargains could soon be scrapped from our stores.
The major change comes as part of a move towards using artificial intelligence (AI) in grocery stores in an attempt to kerb food wastage.
It could see automatic pricing on fresh products which would usually have a reduced sticker slapped on them as they near their use-by date.
Instead of a supermarket staffer walking around and labelling the goods, their prices would automatically change on the digital tag.
The snappy price shift would mean shoppers would see the reduced price sooner, and, in theory, nab the cheaper food quicker.
It's already been trialled in supermarkets across the country, and is looking to be rolled out for further testing.
