You ain't seen nothing yet.
The fast coming Virtual Reality (VR) will be the final nail in the retail bricks and mortar coffin.
Soon, you will put on your VR goggles and then happily wander down the isles looking at this and that and choosing exactly what you want - all without leaving your chair in front of the fireplace.
Twenty minutes later, the Amazon drone will deliver it to your front door - or a self driving delivery truck will do the same thing with larger items - and those will be unloaded by the robot.
A true revolution in retail that will dwarf what the Internet has done so far is on the way.

Well I hope my son retools his job skills to work in the brave new world.
