Since the new technology’s
initiation nearly three months
ago, over 2,000 customers have
taken advantage of this time-sav
ing option.
Herrick hopes other Kroger
stores will follow the B-CS lead
and initiate the use of this tech
nology.
“Besides being convenient,
SecureTouch-n-Pay speeds up
transactions and cuts down on
lost checks,” he said.
The majority of customers’
responses have been positive,
Herrick said.
Store employees, like senior
Spanish major Tiffanee Peterson,
enjoy the convenience of the fin-

gerprint imaging machines.
“It’s good to give people
options,” Peterson said.
SecureTouch-n-Pay can be
beneficial to the time-conscious
shopper, but there
drawbacks that
might counter
act its alleged
convenience.
Currently, inter
ested customers
need a valid
Texas Driver’s
License or Texas
I.D.
The
SecureTouch-n-
Pay system is
being updated to accept other
states’ licenses, but presently
only identification issued from

Also, having a driver’s license
in the system does not make its
possession unnecessary. If a cus
tomer of the system wishes to
purchase alcohol or tobacco
products, it still
must be presented
during checkout,
Herrick said.
The capture
window of the
machine is not
dependable, and
there are some
factors that might
affect the effec-
tiveness of the
machine to scan a
customer’s finger.

skin on their fingertips can have

“It’s hard to separate
work from your faith life,”Aj
said. “It was difficult for met
there because you never
when people would yell prof;
tirades or do such tactics as
nail incident.”
Agnew also surmised fc
incident created a difficult s:
tion for him in keeping his:
gious life and his career separ^

Agnew said. “I want to per

my faith. There is a fine
between both.”
David Bereit, executive
tor of the Coalition for Life,
this incident will not silence
organization.
“This type of action ha>
served to invigorate the coalr
goal,” Bereit said. “It is tragx
someone is apparently resoitr

increase our efforts to end ate

The award hopes to brinji

a couple of concerns for sort
the Kroger customers.
Also, the stores are not

Herrick said the store*
