Not quite related to this story. But I was visiting New York in 2020 just before Coronavirus shut down the world. I wanted to show my Wife how an Amazon Go store worked. So I got the App slapped on my credit card and we wandered in. I futzed about picking shit up and leaving it down in wrong places. We leave and can instantly see our receipt.

We leave finish our trip and go home. About a month later. AmazonGo emails me saying they can't bill my card. So I update my card on my account with another. (First one was Visa second one was Mastercard)

They email me again telling me they can't bill me. I email back telling them they've got their choice of 2 cards to charge on if neither of the perfectly valid cards do not work. They have an issue with their payment system. Never heard from them again. So I got $20 dollars of stuff free from AmazonGo cos they couldn't bill me.

Probably not go in again in case there is a Beezo security bot ready to jump me.
