Housewifes New Best Friend


Its like earlier today, I went for a quick walk to the shops to get some provisions. The local shopping area here is an urban planners armpit and makes for quite an underwhelming retail experience, to say the least. As I browsed zombielike down the various aisles I realized I didn't have a clue what I wanted for lunch let alone what ingredients I should buy. I even caught myself spending an undeserved amount of consideration on the poor display of Pot Noodles available.
Then I thought, cue lightbulb/lightning bolt, what if there were a machine at the entrance of the supermarket hooked up to a database (on the internet or something) of recipies! You could type in what you fancied for lunch, how many people were attending and the machine would produce a recipe, method and the ingredients needed. You could even print off a plan map of the shop with where to find the various ingredients. That would be great!
A good business angle would be to sell advertising on the printout or offer discounts.
