Extra irony or eye rolls when people are mad about the reservation system or order pick up system. Yesterday some those many waiting gave me strange looks when I set my bike against the glass front, showed the message on my phone to the greeter, was handed some AirPods, and left.

I bet most people know they're going to the store 45 - 90 minutes ahead of time and what they want. Just buy and pay via fingers and finger print, and it's usually a few minutes of your life spent and without having to step more than 10-20 feet into the store. This is 2017. I don't see much reason for wasting time in stores if it's not something like neighborhood hardware store, groceries or where fit is an issue.
