Grocery stores used to actually care if you could afford what you were putting in your cart!

00:00 – Intro 

00:31 – Why Grocery Clickers Fell Out of Fashion 

08:11 – Testing the Grocery Clicker in the Store

Today's Story shares a bit of 1950s history that you may not know about - the grocery store clicker. Add-O-Matic, Handy Counter, and other brands were common-place calculators that people brought to the grocery store to keep track of their spending. Why do you think people stopped using them?

In the Main Topic today, Jay and Amanda go to the grocery store to test out the grocery clicker and see if they could predict what the total of their grocery list would be - like the Price is Right! Do you think the grocery clicker would help you spend less at the grocery store?
