One of the big grocery delivery companies should source it's food via Priceline.com food service. Would this not result in delivered groceries for cheaper than we could get them by going to the store - even after a delivery charge?
Just an idea...

[Admin: vote fraud with users md1..md5 deleted. Why?] |
|

You would be referring no doubt to my assistants who also thought it was a good idea. Just because it comes from the same IP address does not mean it is fraud |

(The previous notice started out as "Because I think it deserves more than one vote", but was quickly replaced with what you see now.) |

If your own voice is more important than those of other users at this site to the point of deceiving them, why bother communicating with other people at all? |
|
| |
Some people are just so desperate for attention. It's actually not a bad idea, otherwise. |
|

Actually, it is a bad idea. |

The ostensible point of services
like Priceline is to aggregate
individual consumers together to
build "buying power" (basically,
the ability to get bulk discounts). |
|
| |
A major distributor like PeaPod or
a supermarket already buys in bulk
and has plenty of buying power.
They don't need Priceline. |
|
| |
A recent Salon article suggests
that Priceline is really about
price discrimination, not bulk
discount, but the point is moot;
corporate purchasers are also
ineligible for price discrimination. |
|
| |
If Priceline were a magic way to
reduce the price of goods, then
that would be the economic
equivalent of a perpetual motion
machine. |

...all sorts of bizarre names, each one an anagram of "PeterSealy"; Teresa Pyle, Earl Steepy, Ray Steeple, etc. :-) |

For one person, it wouldn't be bad. For everybody, it'd quickly flop. |
|
| |
Hey, e-business is already dead, so I guess this idea is too. |
