This is discussed in depth in this volume and constitutes one of its main contributions. However, some stores to not sell their scanner data, which would lead to incomplete data sets. And of course, this new technology would not be suitable to measure food price inflation in developing countries, where the majority of retail food sales are not made in supermarkets.
