    I’ve been contemplating sending a business rival a bottle of whiskey for proper capatilization on the word “FastLane” as well as strict adherence to correct PLU usage in the face of absurd custom store-level PLUs, 100% get it.

      You should!

      Do you have an example of a good and bad PLU, actual if possible?

      (I did search engine/LLM it first :) )

        More that they’re using the official IFPS PLUs instead of using the random numbers that this grocery store decided to use.

        Bananas are standardized at PLU 4011, but this store has been using PLU 14 out of convenience to them at the expense of government agencies that need the correct numbers to approve purchases made with state-run welfare programs that restrict their use to specific produce items, like WIC.
