Shopping Drone

Introducing the cute and lovable shopping drone, the S.T.U.D. (Shop Till You Drop). Sort of looks like R2D2, but cuter.

This obedient little robot comes with hooks and compartments to carry all your shopping purchases, as well as a secure storage compartment for your credit cards, handbag, mobile phone, lip-sticks, highlighters, perfumes, hair clips, nail-clippers, mints, pills, ointments, mirror, pens, notebooks, palmtop, jewellery, membership cards, sprays, extra shoes, paperback romance novel, cash and other accessories.

It carries your grocery while you queue, it cuts a path through crowds for you, and it is able to (proudly) navigate treacherous escalators and perilous stairs with flawless poise. It draws admiring and envious stares!

And at each shop, it dutifully compliments you on how good you would look with that splendid new blouse or sparkling new necklace.

       You forgot the mirror, direct web link to Cosmopolitan.com and broken nail mender. You also forgot to mention what happens when two S.T.U.D.s go after the same article/product.   

       If I were a woman, I'd be insulted. I'm not and I am.

       [phoenix] I hope you recognise a joke when you see one.   

       S.T.U.D.s don't go after products themselves. They will just meekly carry whatever goods are purchased and handed them by the lady.

       As long as he makes a version to go round DIY shops pretending to be enthusiastic about power tools, I don't think this is bad. Ultimately all non-essential male-female contact could be replaced by robots.

       Bliss, you must really love that cellphone of yours.
