I miss Amazon Fresh, the physical store near me.

When they started up I'd just scan a barcode, walk in, and the whole idea was to just grab what you want off the shelf and walk out.
They had a LOT of cameras everywhere, and they claimed it was some AI thing checking what everyone is picking up, which then charges your account etc. (later found out it was just a bunch of guys in India looking at the cameras lol).

I got so many free things they just didn't notice. I don't know if it was the large jacket I was wearing, or something else, but I managed to get free meals almost every time I visited.

No guilt since it's Amazon, and they replaced that store with a Tesco Express so everything worked out.
