Feeling old. Went to
grab something for dinner at a Wegman’s that I was driving by (their ready to
heat up offerings are some of my favorites).
I like the setup because you can grab what you want and jump in an
express checkout and be out of the store is a matter of minutes.
I was the slowpoke.
The checkout line had several likeminded shoppers in front of me and a
couple behind me – all with a handful of items and all using their phones for a
quick pay feature. The barely had to
slow down through the line (except for the old guy who had to swipe a
card). I didn’t even have time to be embarrassed.
Outside, I noticed that a couple of my fast
shopping colleagues got into waiting cars – they didn’t even have to park! So I
have a prediction: drive through pre order pick up phone pay dinners. I know that some chain restaurants will
deliver your take-out to a waiting car, but I see the fast lane crowd ordering
from their car from a set menu, arriving at an appointed hour, paying with their
phone without taking the car out of gear. And most important feeling really
proud of the accomplishment. Bet on it
