This place has got everything

Amazon's selling groceries now. Unlike the doomed dot.com grocery services, this one seems a little more sensible. Amazon already has an infrastructure - warehouses and fedex and whatnot, and they've decided to stick with non-perishable items in bulk quantities. So really, it's more like CostCo online, very sensible. From a quick glance, prices seem to be in line with CostCo's, too. I could see this service being very useful for the items you use regularly - for me, that would be diapers, Club crackers (my son's favorite food), and pet stuff like food and cat litter. Sadly, they don't carry dog food or kitty litter. But, give it time and this might actually be useful. With free shipping, it just might work.

Blues Brothers. Ripping through the mall.

Parallels betwixt Costco and Amazon are even more evident: Costco is the single largest book retailer on Earth.
