Wal-Mart Canada Makes Bus Stops Your Shopping Destination With QR Codes

About a year ago, you had read about British multinational grocery and general merchandise retailer Shopping From Virtual Shelves Brought To You By Tesco at airports and how they brought groceries to your house once you have finalised the order by your smartphone.
