Amazon GO: no cashiers, no registers, no lines<\/h3>\n

\"amazon\"The online retail giant revealed a concept for a physical store: the store, called Amazon Go<\/strong>, doesn’t work like a typical Walmart or supermarket \u2014 instead, it’s designed so that shoppers will use an app, also called Amazon Go, to automatically add the products they plan to buy to a digital shopping cart; they can then walk out of the building without waiting in a checkout line.\u00a0The stores will sell ready-made food, staples like bread and milk, and other grocery products. Amazon says its stores are about 1,800 square feet, so they are relatively small compared with big supermarkets.<\/p>\n
