Sorry I meant cost of the goods - PPOD after all is footing the bill and running at a loss. My apologies; this is indeed a great deal. <g> Since I live in the Bay Area, maybe I should sign up?

Believe me, I wish the company god speed - but if you think a well-organized setup like Safeway sucks, you'd better stay away from PPOD until they've proven they've got the goods. And you're right: the moment it proves profitable, Safeway will be in it.

Frankly, comparing AMZN to PPOD is like comparing books to oranges - they can both be sold at a loss on the internet <vbg>
