Piggly Wiggly's Biometrics

Wal-Mart is not always first in technology:

Continuing its company-wide deployment of biometric technology, Piggly Wiggly's Greenwood, S.C. store went live on its own new payment system yesterday.

The Greenwood launch is the operator’s fifth installation of the Pay By Touch system, which allows shoppers to pay for their purchases with the touch of a finger, eliminating the need for checks, IDs, credit/debit cards, membership cards, or loyalty cards.

You can enroll in this award-winning system by going here.
