Sure, lets do it. (with some coution)

RFID's on all products would really change the shopping experance. Like the old scifi movies where a whole shopping cart could be scanned at once and it added up in a mater of seconds. That would elimate the biggest nbottlenect at the store, geting rung up.

Also that would really help to cut into shop lifting, if store would actually have the backbone to stop people when the alarm goes off.\

However, I want want some way to makesure that the tags are full deactivates after i've paid for my stuff. I really don't like the idea of anyone on the street with an RFID reader beina able to tell exactly what i have in my pocket.

How about putting the chips inside our dollar bills? That would really cut into counterfitting.

Just ideas.

Work with tech, Don't get compleatly paranoid.
