A customer pushes a Caper smart shopping cart filled with groceries. A screen, displaying an ad for Annie's mac and cheese, is seen just above the handle, and there's a payment terminal on the left side of the cart.
Instacart is launching ads on its Caper smart shopping carts.
  • Instacart will start selling ads to food brands on its Caper smart shopping carts.
  • Shoppers will even see ads customized to their buying habits on the cart's screen.
  • It's the latest example of retailers trying to increase their revenue from advertising, especially in stores.

Your grocery cart might be the next place you'll see ads tailored to your buying habits.
