In the future, you may not even have to get out of your car when you pick up your shopping.
IN the future, doing the weekly shopping could be as easy as swinging through the Macca’s drive-through.
Well that’s according to this excellent video that was posted on Futurism.com ...
The patent for ‘Drive Market’, a drive-through supermarket concept, was recently filed by Russian inventor Semenov Dahir Kurmanbievich.

After you drive up to the service bay, you can scroll through the store’s entire inventory right from your seat.

All in all, the whole process should take less than five minutes.

A high tech ventilation system would suck up exhaust to keep the air clean.
The aim of the concept is to improve customer service, maximise convenience, increase product choice and lower costs.
It would certainly be damn handy when it’s raining and, even better, it would keep children’s supermarket tantrums out of the public eye ... and that is an incredibly appealing concept.
