1st postcard from ITALY!!!

The 1st postcard from Italy with a view of Alba:

Curiosity about Italy:

• In some supermarkets the consumer receives a portable reading bar code machine, which is used each time the customer places a product in his/her shopping cart. This machine automatically makes the sum of purchase, and at the end, the cashier does not check product by product and only charges what the machine is showing on the display. It is a vote of confidence in citizens.

Best Wishes!
