I'd like to know how this has been working out. It seems cool and very promising but a few points in the 5 minutes I've been on it so far. It would be cool in general if there was a way to get site feedback from some of these suggestions and update these posts. I've tried several of the suggestions over time. Most of them I like; there were a few that "meh..." I would like to know what the consensus was and what people's pain points were. 1. Basket instead of single item for a need. There should be options for specific products, any product, any within a brand, or the ability to select several products that you consider perfect substitute. Not to get too personal but I use Old Spice deodorant. I don't care which so long as it's Old Spice. This way, the sales/coupons and prices can optimize the fact that I do not distinguish between them. Another example would be Q-tips. I don't care which brand - I would just want the cheapest. 2. Price per unit. There needs to be price per unit measurements. I noticed this when trying to chose Q-tips. My corner grocery in Washington Heights, NY has it so why can't they. On a separate note. Alice.org is a cool way to learn OOP - object oriented programming. It’s been a while since this was first posted. I’d like to know how this has been working out.
