Amazon has revealed plans for a grocery shop without a checkout process, where customers will instead pay for the goods they have selected via an app.

I had this app, but it refused to work at the checkout once I had scanned everything (so it had to be all redone the old fashioned way).

I had this so many times with the "old" Waitrose card, scan system that it just got tedious - and more frustrating than queuing with all the other plebs....

Thanks for that!

Mrs Beano immediately went: ...."yeah, but, no, but ... then you have to go back into the store and say 'oi, this on my receipt isn't mine'..."

Do PH'rs really go shopping in supermarkets






Of course I do.... Insert typical PH statement about powerfully built directors here

We all need to buy cans of custard and frozen sausages somewhere?

Don't Amazon already have an app where you can deliver those wherever you want - same day

They'll probably need shelf stackers for a good while yet.
