An adjustable shelf for retail merchandise, comprising: a shelf having a generally U-shaped cross section perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the shelf, the shelf having a bottom wall and front and rear walls extending upwardly from the bottom wall in opposed spaced relation;a plurality of support members, wherein each of the plurality of support members includes a U-shaped opening for sliding reception of the shelf such that the opening completely surrounds the shelf and such that the shelf extends through the opening on either side of a vertical support wall of each of the plurality of support members, the vertical support wall being perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shelf;a mounting portion formed on each of the plurality of support members, the mounting portion adapted to mount each of the plurality of support members to a vertical retail wall, the mounting portion providing a first sliding interface configured to permit sliding movement of each of the plurality of support members relative to the vertical retail wall in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shelf;wherein the U-shaped opening provides a second sliding interface configured to permit sliding movement of each of the plurality of support members relative to the shelf in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shelf, such that each of the plurality of support members is simultaneously slidable relative to the vertical retail wall and relative to the shelf; andwherein the U-shaped opening of each of the plurality of support members has a bottom edge that is not parallel with a bottom edge of each of the plurality of support members such that the bottom wall of the shelf is not parallel to the bottom edge of each of the plurality of support members. 2. The adjustable shelf of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of support members includes a backing wall extending generally perpendicular to the support wall thereof, such that each of the plurality of support members is generally L-shaped. 3. The adjustable shelf of claim 2, wherein the mounting portion is a mounting flange extending away from a top edge of the backing wall, the mounting flange having a generally S-shaped profile and configured to mount within a channel of a slatwall. 4. The adjustable retail shelf of claim 1, wherein the bottom wall of the shelf and a backing wall of each of the plurality of support members are at an angle of less than about ninety degrees. 5. The adjustable retail shelf of claim 1, wherein a portion of the support wall of each of the plurality of support members has an elliptical outer periphery. 6. The adjustable retail shelf of claim 1, wherein the shelf and each of the plurality of support members are formed from a transparent plastic material. 7. An adjustable retail shelving system for retail merchandise, comprising: a vertical slatwall having a plurality of parallel adjacent channels formed therein;a plurality of dividers, each having a mounting portion received within one of the parallel adjacent channels of the slatwall;a shelf slidably received within an opening formed through a support wall of each of the plurality of dividers such that the opening surrounds the shelf and the shelf extends laterally beyond opposing sides of the support wall;wherein each of the plurality of dividers is simultaneously slidable relative to the slatwall and relative to the shelf such that a size of a discrete retail merchandise containment space formed between adjacent ones of the plurality of dividers, the shelf, and the slatwall is adjustable when the mounting portion of each of the plurality of dividers is received within the one of the parallel adjacent channels;wherein the opening of each of the plurality of dividers is U-shaped and the shelf has a corresponding U-shaped cross sectional profile;wherein the shelf has a bottom wall and front and rear walls extending upwardly from the bottom wall in opposed spaced relation, wherein the front and rear walls each have a length that is shorter than a length of the bottom wall;wherein the length of the rear wall is less than the length of the front wall; andwherein the shelf is received within the opening of each of the plurality of dividers such that the bottom wall of the shelf is disposed at an angle of less than about ninety degrees relative to the vertical slatwall. 8. The adjustable retail shelving system of claim 7, wherein each of the plurality of dividers includes a backing wall extending generally perpendicular to the support wall, the backing wall in sliding contact with the slatwall. 9. The adjustable retail shelving system of claim 8, wherein the mounting portion is a mounting flange extending away from the backing wall, and wherein each of the parallel adjacent channels has an upper lip and a lower lip separated by an opening, wherein the mounting flange contacts both the upper lip and the lower lip and extends into the opening.
