Welcome Wireless In Many Ways Wireless technology is almost as common as athletes who shop in The Sports Authority retail stores.

"It is one way we are able to take people out of non-selling functions and put them into selling functions on the store floor," Lynch said. "We don't have to have people replacing shelf tags or stickers all the time because it will be done automatically." Via the RF receivers located throughout the stores, electronic shelf labels would display the sale price matching those particular bar codes already adjusted in the system. This provides a definite cost and time savings for the retailer.
