    You are not thinking big enough. Why bother going to the shops,when it can do the shopping for you??

    What makes you think I've already decided what I want to buy?
    Can it decide that for me?
    Can it also chat up the checkout girls for me?
    What if I make a spur-of-the-moment decision to stop in for a pint?

    That's why.

    So I assume that won't be much shopping,hic?!

    I think when I have done that,it usually ended up with some quite warm chilled food!!
