Kroger’s has scanners near the entrance that you can pick up and carry with you. They used to have them on shopping carts. Apparently that didn’t go over well.
And it is Kroger’s with the possessive “ ‘s “ - as in “Kroger’s store” because the founder’s name was Kroger. Stores that aren’t a person’s name, such IGA, Pelican, or Centerville Hardware don’t get the “s”.
