It's still amazing that one can't go online to order groceries and have them delivered from a local grocery store, especially on a recurring basis. It would be a nice amenity.
Does it really boil down to grocery store + eCommerce = politically/financially/practically hard problem? Seems like there must be some solution that would work.
