Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea? I didn't. In the United States and most western countries, Fido is a family companion and while it's not ethical to judge another culture by our standards, anyone who doesn't at least (humanely) butcher the animal first is acting without proper care. South Korea relies on western consumerism for their economy and needs to be aware that we do not accept the practice of skinning and boiling dogs alive. Originally shared by April Benney Over 6,000 restaurants in South Korea are still serving dog meat even though it is now illegal. In many Asian countries dogs are boiled alive or skinned alive when slaughtered. It's an unbelievably horrendous & torturous way to die. I know a lot of you hate seeing this kind of posts on G+, but the Asian industry slaughtering dogs & cats is how I first got involved in animal rights & it will always be my main animal welfare concern. It's intolerable what is happen...

If it does move to smartphones, I can see them losing business. Some people tend to shop based on advertised prices in their local paper. What price would they advertise in these cases? Seems like the higher prices, since you have to honor your advertised prices to everyone. I don't really see this happening soon in this case.
I do see where they are going with this though. Since those stupid little coupons that they hand out with your 50" receipt are just ridiculous to hold on to. They are more of a paper waste than anything.
How about they just send coupons to my smartphone based on what I buy? Prices stay the same, discounts are given based on buying habits and the general public isn't pissed.
I'm curious how the shopper will know while in the aisle which product they will get cheaper
