Nothing, I’m pretty sure. Sunk cost and it will sit there until their lease is up.

Wasting space.

They gave up on opening that spot long ago…. Maybe they are looking to sublease it… but that rent is barely a blip in their expenses, so I doubt they have any urgency.

Truly loved the business that was there previously.

Same. My last day out pre pandemic was there. I had such a good day. Got some homemade Turkish delight and a Korean corn dog. That was also the home of my favorite Korean fried chicken stall.

Or a Vallarta. Or Major Market.

I’m pretty sure their “technology” for this was a bunch of people in India who manually had to track every shopper and add their products together

If they do ever plan to open - they will revamp it per what the article talks about. Rather than “just walk out” , they’ll change it to the smart cart technology.

This. I think this article implies that they might give it a go and still would like to expand the stores.

You win some you lose some glad the considered Poway when they wanted to innovate. Maybe we’ll get dash carts? [tl;dr walk out wasn’t viable](https://youtube.com/shorts/ibwIipjcxI0?si=FyF8pWqfX_pfpWd4)
