Walgreens entered into an agreement with a startup company called Cooler Screens Inc. to replace the glass doors of the company’s refrigerators and freezers with glitzy, shiny digital screens.

The screens reportedly regularly flickered, crashed, showed the wrong products, and occasionally caught on fire.

The pharmacy giant is locked in a legal battle to get the screens out of its stores before they devolve further into a dystopic hellscape.
