That, I think, is part of the impetus for switching to digital price tags. The tag will literally be able to charge the displyed price depending on who is walking down the aisle. This idea has been patented, and probably not by someone trying to keep anyone from doing it.
Nope, it’s worse. Prices will be raised on people in too tough a spot to go somewhere else. Grandpa and John will pay the increased price because they don’t have cars and this store is either the only one close enough to walk to or the near a bus stop within a route or two. If they raise the price on someone with more money, they can probably choose to go somewhere else. Unless all the chains cooperate on individual customer based price fixing I guess. Quick, someone patent that, if it hasn’t been already.

The budding companion market is gonna love this!
Rent out a grocery trip with grandpa (fixed income), or maybe John who just got out of county.
??? Profit.
