Anyone shop at an Amazon Fresh store? [View all]

It’s quite a novel experience.

One recently opened up locally and we tried it out today. They have standard carts and a regular checkout line, but they also have carts that scan and weigh your items.

If you’ve linked the cart to your Amazon account, you scan your items using the cart scanners and you see a running tally on the cart screen of your grocery items and prices -- and when you’re done you exit through a special no-wait lane and the receipt is sent to your account's email address.

Prices are very competitive and the fruits and vegetables were quite fresh; I presume they’re getting their produce from the same Whole Paycheck provider. There were plenty of helpful employees, and the store was clean, well-stocked, and not very crowded.

It seems to me that this may be what grocery shopping in the near future might look like.

YMMV.
