It gets shipped even if you buy it in a retail store.
Pets.com was a great idea poorly executed about a decade too early.
Who's doing pets.com's modern equivalent now?
True, but Amazon (amongst others) is increasingly making the economics of delivery more feasible.

Amazon is: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=lp_2975359011_ex_n_1?rh=n%3A2619...
So is Wag.com (a subsidiary of theirs): http://www.wag.com/
I LOLed at that because my monthly subscribe n save is due later this week and over the years the delivery is getting physically bigger to the point of almost requiring palletized delivery, like the cardboard box is getting so big and heavy my wife has problems moving it. I have hit the UPS shipping limits in the past. Its not just food, I get stuff like dishwasher detergent on a schedule, shaving cream, bath soap, laundry detergent, trash bags... I don't buy much at brick and mortar stores anymore except for fresh/frozen and emergencies. Who has time to stand in a food store once a month for five minutes selecting a box of kitchen trash bags at a price higher than amazon would charge, times about 20 other items?
