Please cut’n’paste the whole of this post, including this line. PRESS RELEASE Shopping Version 1.0.1 Grandma Shopping: She would walk into town and buy basic ingredients to cook and bake at home, with help from the milkman, greengrocer and baker delivering to her door. She socialised at the pub, the heart of her community. She knew everybody and everybody knew her. Shopping Version 2.3.0 The travelling milkman, greengrocer and baker shrivelled up and blew away because most of us began to think of supermarkets as convenient shopping, and convenience is good, however much a drudge it is. We take drink home and we’re on first-name terms with people on the TV. Pubs are for special occasions, if you can find one. Shopping Version 3.1.5 It’s now emerging on the public psyche that we’re convenient for the supermarkets when all along we thought it was the other way around. We’ve accepted the wasteful packaging, the over-selling, and the risk of manufacturers cutting corners, of being profiled for targeted marketing and all the other tricks. The fuel, the time, the Christmas Crush, the temptations which make us overbuy and we tolerate the amount we throw away when we’ve overstocked our fridges. We overlook that we’re growing increasingly isolated from each other because people only see trolleys, like we see cars but not the people inside them. They don’t see their town centres crumbling in decay because there’s no reason to go there anymore. ANNOUNCING Shopping Version 4.0.0 (FREE Upgrade!) Feature-rich, easy to install, Shopping V4 combines the very best of all the previous releases and takes full advantage of modern technology, Laptops to Tablets, Smartphone to SmartShoppers, this powerful, platform-independent concept is intuitive, extremely user-friendly and comes with a no-risk guarantee.
