That’s what jet.com founder and Walmart CEO of E-commerce Marc Lore says. “A Walmart associate will come into your home using a one time code and wearing a camera so you can watch and have trust as he puts stuff in your fridge. Later you won’t even have to order; they’ll just keep you stocked.” I’m guessing the OT will be early adopters. I’m right, aren’t I?

ETA: This was on Cramer today.

Actually, I am not sure why we don't make refrigerators with a door to the inside of the house and also another door to the outside of the house. Think how nice it would be to have a door to your fridge that also opened to the garage! This would allow you to grab beers while outside and also for this kind of delivery service to work well.

We might as well just skip to the end game and all move into Walmazon high rise buildings. See you there.

Walmart would obviously keep you whole (and sue employee). Would be cool to not have to go to grocery store anymore. I’m for it.

If Amazon had this up and running, most people on here would love it.

Ah, so the friend of a Walmart employee comes in and steals my shite while they put butter in.

Nice.

If they can figure out how to replace my toilet paper in the middle of a crap then they may have something.

My parents house was built pre-electric refridgeration. The rear of the house adjacent to the kitchen had a carriage/truck height door for ice delivery. The room was originally a cold storage room.

Yeah, this sounds great.

The people I see employed at WalMart are the exact types that I want to go to my house while I’m gone.

This is just gonna allow someone to case the place before deciding how to break in at a later date.
