Germany 101
Effiziency
Germany, land of the Future
Who needs the land of the free when you have the land of the efficient? Following on from the world’s first automated restaurant, did you know that Real has opened ‘The Future Store’? No, you don’t get to shop on hovercrafts or buy or your meal in convenient pill form (although they do have ‘Roger the Real Robot’ to help out shoppers gone astray).
Basically, you head into the Future Store with your Handy , which you then use to scan the barcodes of your Joghurt or Schokolade or what have you. Then at the till your clever mobile phone tallies up your purchases and you pay electronically. Move over George Jetson!
