How do I get price labels off, once they are stuck on the product?

All price marking labels, unless specifically noted come with security slits to allow for easy removal and at the same time to prevent price switching due to the fact that upon removal the labels will split apart.
To remove a price marking label without damaging your products surface, make sure to use a plastic scraper. Monarch, which is one of the more popular pricing gun and label manufacturers- makes scrapers for this purpose, but any plastic device with a good edge will do. Try using a plastic knife, and wetting the label for easier removal.
If you know that you will be removing pricing labels from products often, specify this when ordering because removable adhesives are available for most pricing labels.
