You should move to the UK. Ocado (amongst others) offers grocery deliveries that you can order from your iPhone or iPad

  As do Asda, Tesco, Sainsbury. Allow you to order online to your home that is. Its more common than uncommon amongst the larger chains. It also seems self-check out is more prevalent/caught on quicker here. Tesco also has an API i think. Curious what dynamics influence grocery stores from different regions to adopt tech with such varying levels of hesitation.

    I always use the self checkout with a chip-n-pin debit card in the Sainsbury's downstairs from our office - actually getting served by someone at a checkout or using cash now seems terribly quaint.

      Do you find the self-service checkouts to be faster? Even now I've got past the "unidentified item in the bagging area" stage, it's still slower than having them swipe them through for you ...

  Don't all the major UK supermarket chains provide online ordering and delivery?

    Yes, but I am an Ocado shill. (just kidding, didn't realise everyone offered it. Not in the target market.)

    Morrison's don't, which always annoys me.
