Too often newsagents sticker items which do not need to be stickered. Take this organza bag of easter eggs. The barcode is sitting loose in the bag – not stuck on the bag or on eggs. This approach respects the product and it can still be easily scanned.
When barcoding items we take a thoughtful approach, preferring to not stick a sticker on products we can barcode in a more creative way. This is especially important for collectible items which will sell if they are not damaged by tickets.
With the Easter eggs, one customer commented that they got a bonus organza bag they can use after the eggs have been eaten. They would be less likely able to do this if the sticker was stuck on the outside of the bag.
Not the best idea because the bag would have to be opened to get the barcode out if it is for a gift
It’s easily done Shaun.
Two words for you Shaun – Apli Tags 🙂
