I saw this on engadget- PeaPod.com is an online grocery shopping service that lets you keep your shopping list on your PC and order your stuff online. It’s then delivered to your home at a predetermined time. I used this service years ago when I had back surgery and could not leave my third floor apartment for six weeks. It was a lifesaver for me and an excellent service. They are now taking the service further as they are working on a way for customers to improve their shopping experience. Everytime you take something out of your pantry you snap a picture of the item’s barcode with your Bluetooth phone and it automatically uploads into your PeaPod shopping list. Cool use of technology that is actually useful.
