Yeah love grocery shopping when I’m making a meal or shopping for something unique. Personally, I’m not a fan of shopping for the same stuff over and over.

- rorykoehler 8y agoThat's kind of my point. I buy coffee every week but rarely the same one. In fact discovering, comparing and contrasting various beans, washes, roasts and preparation types is half the joy of coffee.
- hahajk 8y agoMe too, but I also like the “surprise me” subscription services like wine clubs. It’d be a decent backup plan if too many users complained about the monotony.
- seizethecheese 8y agoWe actually default people into a "surprise me" subscription.
- gatherhunterer 8y agoWouldn’t a service like this also suppress competition by making part of the market impenetrable to new companies?
- rorykoehler 8y agoI guess that's why YC invested in it.
- sghiassy 8y agoJust for contrast, I buy the same coffee every week.
- puranjay 8y agoI like coffee but it's now mostly a utility for me. Same with milk and eggs and butter. I have a fixed brand (not that there are too many options in my local market) and I buy it by default
