There's a farm here in Zurich where we buy a lot of our groceries. The store is unmanned. You use their calculator (or your cellphone calculator) to add up what you're buying then use your phone to scan a QR code and pay.

- speedylight 9mo agoThat’s so cool, I wish something like this existed in the states. That’s the kind of trust local communities thrive in <3
- sevensor 9mo agoI know a few farmstands here that operate on the honor system. Put $5 in the box, take your bag of apples. You have to go a bit out of your way, but they do exist in the States.
- smogcutter 9mo agoLots of farm stands in NY’s North Country operate like this. With Zelle, etc, there’s no box of cash sitting out and you don’t need to worry about making change.
- alamortsubite 9mo agoThese exist all over in the U.S. There are easily hundreds in my area, though I only frequent a dozen or so.
