Contrast: In Europe typically no items in a grocery store have their price printed onto the actual product. Or even have price tags. You look up the product price by the price sign placed adjacently. It includes (by law) a handy price comparison (in the format of currency per e.g. liter/kg/g/etc.)

I think your system sucks donkey ass. :)

Also in the U.S. almost all major groceries likewise use signs on the shelf to display price, and the cashier reads the bar code to retrieve it at checkout.

The actual reason is a lack of sufficient pressure to change this practice.
