The companies said Tuesday that Nuro’s unmanned vehicle, the R1, will be added to a fleet of autonomous Prius vehicles that have run self-driving grocery delivery service in Scottsdale, Arizona with vehicle operators since August.
The R1 can travel on public roads and has no driver or passengers. It only transports goods.
Delivery service via the R1 or Prius vehicles is available for a single Fry’s Food Stores in Scottsdale. Customers will pay a flat fee of $5.95, with no minimum order requirement. Shoppers can place their orders immediately and request same-day or next-day delivery. Delivery service is available seven days a week.
Kroger, along with other grocery chains are such phonies. Their pharmacies sell cigarette patches, as well as other medications to get people to stop smoking. However, at the same time, they sell cigarettes, and other tobacco products. CVS, one of the largest retail pharmacy chains has stopped selling tobacco products. However, Walgreens, Kroger, Giant Eagle, and all of the other large grocery chains don’t have the guts to stop selling tobacco, since it brings in a lot of revenue.
