Amazon has opened its first “just walk out” grocery store in the UK where shoppers can pick up their goods and leave without having to visit a till.
The Amazon Fresh store in Ealing, west London, is a "contactless" shop available to anyone signed up to Amazon and with the app on their phone.
Customers must scan in a code on their phone to gain entry. Once inside, shoppers can pick up the goods they want without scanning them or even visiting a till.
