A couple of years ago my hubby and I thought about setting up a coffee bar with some cool trinkets. Here I didn’t think we could get things that we’d be able to buy for the business, like barcode scanners, but - who knew - they have them everywhere! All the department stores have them and they do inventory just like we do in the US. It’s very cool to know that even in other countries, everything is being counted. But then, why is it cool since I’m not doing the counting? Because…if a clerk is scanning a product she can also look up the cost of a product that I can’t find - and - tell if they’re in stock. Oh joy!
