Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:23 AM Author: black diverse rehab coldplay fan Option to pre-order your goods through an app so that everything is bagged by the time you get there. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438330) |

Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:29 AM Author: black diverse rehab coldplay fan Avoid bottlenecks with an online pre-order mandate. And/or have dedicated parking spots for people who didn't pre-order to wait in while their goods or bagged. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438345) |

Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:37 AM Author: black diverse rehab coldplay fan How would that be any more of a problem here than it already is with fast food? Doesn't keep people from spending billions. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438356) |

Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:43 AM Author: black diverse rehab coldplay fan Huge amazon warehouses have systems to quickly locate and package items with ~0% error. No reason you can't replicate something that in a small store. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438364) |

Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:47 AM Author: greedy library knife most stores that arent amazon have SPS tech infrastructure, for whatever reason. ever try buying anything on target's website? it's a slow and miserable experience, and just doesnt fucking work.
stores COULD do it. but they dont.

Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:51 AM Author: greedy library knife then, why do you need a cvs/walgreens convenience store? why not have amazon set up combined target + grocery store branches all over major cities? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438377) |
|
Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:56 AM Author: black diverse rehab coldplay fan Because Targets and Grocery stores have like 20X more items than CVS/Walgreens. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438383) |

Date: December 23rd, 2015 3:58 AM Author: greedy library knife tiny-ass MFH grocery stores are barely bigger than the average cvs/walgreens in middle america. you could easily combine that shit. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438386) |
|
Date: December 23rd, 2015 4:17 AM Author: black diverse rehab coldplay fan I'd rather bolt the drive thru model on to an otherwise pre-existing business model like CVS/Walgreens. What you're talking about would be more of a Phase II, if it made it that far. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3077451&forum_id=2#29438428) |
|
Date: December 23rd, 2015 4:21 AM Author: greedy library knife the only reason cvs/walgreens stays in business is bc they're open late-night (or 24 hrs). otherwise, you can buy all that shit at target or a grocery store.
if amazon can have a combined target-grocery store combo conveniently located, it's easy to run 24/7 w/ minimal labor costs and it will put the cvs/walgreens out of business. |
