Amazons first store where all the magic happens

Stores are all around the world, correct? So what would happen when a multi-billion dollar company makes a store- or the very first store?

The fist amazing supermarket is opened and to the surprise there are no check out or humans to verify the purchases

The store has cameras on the ceilings identifying each and every person, this also means it tracks the items the customers are buying. And I know your probably asking "then does that mean free stuff?"

Well no. You use your Amazon go app as a credit card, but not really. It's used to identify you and your credit card that you have. Once leaving with the item your credit card would automatically be charged

There was some problems with the cameras that they used, for instance people with identical body types gets the system confused, and to add on that kids moving items to different areas.

Amazons go supermarket isn't the only one though, back in 2015 they made 12 different Amazon bookstores around the world. The latest was last year in New York.

The total earnings was 1.28bn, but most of that was generated by whole foods.

The Amazon store is located where the headquarters are, http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/01/...n-seattle/

Dude holy shit, that's actually really bad ass. It seems like Amazon will finally head towards being a bigger retailer than Walmart. Unless Walmart steps up it's game man.

Yea I know, I'm surprised they did that. I'm hoping to visit there bookstores, I hear there amazing!

Will be interesting to see how their technology integrates with the existing Whole Foods stores. The slow rollout of these stories are kind of like the self ordering kiosks, we slowly become acquainted by the technology and by the time it's mainstream we've accepted it as the nor.

Bought a great gadget already from the store already, awesome stuff

This is very exciting! Who doesn't like magic and stores

this will change a lot in our world. amazon is an incredible imperium.

amazon getter bigger and bigger, i hope somebody can compete with them

Haha, looks like they might finally be the only people I buy from if they open up a place around here too buy grocerys. I already order everything that I order online from amazon, I hope they don't end up monopolizing the market and driving up the prices when theres no competition (Like walmart loves too do!).

Pretty cool actually, i live in europe no way i will get to be in one but it seems like a smart idea to have to pay for lss workers
