GREEDY shoppers of the future will be told off if they try to buy too much junk food - by their TROLLEYS.

I could just imagine the voice coming from the trolley, and saying to me....... "Stay away from the cream cakes" Laughing

And I can just imagine Sainsbury's being happy about that! I thought retailers existed to make a profit from the purchases we make. If I owned a large food store I'd have my trolleys saying: "Go on. You know you want to. It's gooey, yummy, full of carbs and hydrogenated fats and makes us a bigger profit. Buy it. Now, you sucker!".
