... "no need to pay someone to pick out the stuff and drive it to
you, which doubles the price of the goods." Not even close to true, do some DD. Delivery is one of three plans, as little as $5 per delivery, or $20 per month, pretty miniscule... Oh, we've got a few Safeways in our area, the closest one, how should I put this, SUCKS ;-). Of course is we really want to get up close & swap sneezes in the parking lot it can be fun! The times, they are a changin'. Anyways, not looking to put Safeway out of biz, as you note they already are profitable, maybe they will even buy some SplitPea software to compete. Of course they wouldn't do that unless the 'idea' of selling groceries via the internet was a valid one, now would they, kinda like Barnes & Noble & Amazon.
