They change the prices in the computer system and also use this little handheld device to check prices. Also, what is the pay if possible?

Price Checker. Their pay will depend on the location of the store and what store it is. The pay in Iowa is not the same as in San Francisco.

Actually, the common name for this position in *most* supermarkets is "Stocker." As with all jobs...they are packing more and more duties upon sole positions. So nowadays places like Kroger, Publix, etc. use their stockers to also change prices. The manager responsible for these prices is also sometimes called a Pricing Coordinator.

Usually prices are downloaded from a corporate system to store computers - not manually changed by a person in the stores themselves. The little handheld devices are referred to as scanguns, LRT's, price guns, etc.

Pay ranges depend on your state.
