> with those small houses in SF, where do you put all the junk you buy? Heh, heh. Even a stock option millionaire can't afford more than 1/4 acre of land and a tiny shack in the bay area. Looked at some houses last week that were asking 3 million dollars- none of them would have cost more than 200k in any other part of the country.

Sarmad, not only do I click on online ads, I know a bunch of people that have used online ads - I asked around before I bought dclk stock. My friend clicked on an online Dell promotion and bought a new PC. I know the online registration for the bay to breakers is very successful because there was a piece about it in the SF chronicle this weekend. Online ads and shopping are a time saver - not something that appeals more towards people with a bunch of leisure time. I think online grocery shopping is going to appeal to moms with small kids, working people and the like... again, not the upper incomes. Sure some wealthy people will use the service but online groceries are not geared to the high end.
