What happens when it all goes down? It hasn't yet but mankind in general is pretty sharp. We'll get through it till everything is back up.
Power goes out while you are shopping? They can't make a sale anyway as most larger stores are running inventory control on Point Of Sale registers today. Every item scanned at the check out is automatically reduced from the store inventory. So they are not going to sell you anything anyway.
Some places like Wal Mart has a system in place that as soon as a trans action is complete sends that information to corporate HQ which then item by item sends that info to the regional warehouse. The computer at the warehouse adds the items sold to a pick list for that store. At a certain time the list is filled and workers pack boxes with the items sold for that day and when the truck goes out it has the items needed to replenish the inventory. System like that also allow a store to track sales so they can determine what items they should carry and what isn't selling. So as I said it's store policy that no sales take place when they can't used the POS system. That has nothing to do if a kid can't add or figure taxes.

You guys can complain all you want to about the modern age but if you own a smart phone you actually have a computer in your pocket! I can do math, scan an item in a store and have it tell me if there is a better deal elsewhere, get directions or watch a movie all with this little device in my pocket.
Because most of the systems being used today by the government you can bet that should everything go down it will not be down for long.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
