it should not hurt them but i wouldn't put the over any markings. i have purchased several that had them on the acl lables. they can be difficult to remove sometimes.

Fingernail polish remover on a cotton ball works pretty good.

They sell stuff called GooGone that takes it off. Vegetable oil works too, but then you need soap to take off the oil.

Just like removing decals from a car; use a hair dryer. It loosens the adhesive and the decal peels right off in most cases. Then get rid of the remaining adhesive off with either goo gone or wd-40, if that could be done safely.

If the price tag is on a label, be ultra careful with the hair dryer so as not to mess up the label.

I want to put sticky tags on them because I am cataloging my bottles so that I can keep track of what I payed for them......

fresh lemon juice and a rough sponge and some elbow greese works great and does not hurt, change, or scrach glass.

I heard WD-40 works. But just warm water should work too. Don't peel the label, just stick it in the water and it should just slide off.
