"Nice idea but how about the dirt and germs you are trailing from the supermarket into your car and then into your home?! Those wheels will be touching everything and moving between all places! Yuck!"
"My first thought was the 1993 self driving cars from 'Demolition Man'. A auto retractable steering wheel while in autopilot?! Clip: https://youtu.be/qc1cX0abcJc?t=1sBut like in the movie there might be mechanical issues?!"
"A thought: Less waste is definitely good but one thing to consider is handling by couriers? I can't remember ever receiving a parcel where the outer packaging hasn't been damaged in some way?! Therefore I feel large amounts of filler isn't necessarily a bad thing? If it will protect my order?From a business point of view sending goods once and not having returns is a good thing?Maybe the issue also lies with how parcels are handled? Might autonomous systems be the key? "
"A possible western solution would eliminate the basket and use the bag itself when shopping? This would avoid expensive and bulky checkout equipment. The bag could be basket shape and made from brown paper? As plastic bags are considered not environmentally friendly! Having a 'scanner' attachment to a paper basket which is returned and used at checkout would solve 2b? Saying that some UK supermarkets already have self scanners when shopping: www.waitrose.com/home/about_waitrose/quick_check.htmlA problem which makes my grocery shopping experience a chore is large/bulk buying. A basket bagging solution therefore doesn't suffice?!Just a thought! :)"
