"Radio frequency is another technology that supermarkets are already using in
a number of places throughout the store. We now envision a day where
consumers will walk into a store, select products whose packages are embedded
with small radio frequency UPC codes, and exit the store without ever going
through a checkout line or signing their name on a dotted line." 28 - Jacki
Snyder,Manager of Electronic Payments for Supervalu (Supermarkets), Inc., and
Chair, Food Marketing Institute Electronic Payments Committee
