Look inside your refrigerator, even if you're inside a supermarket!

I saw an Amazing Samsung refrigerator at Digital Focus and wondered why it was there because of Master Card. Turns out there's something new called Groceries by MasterCard. According to MasterCard, grocery sales are in the $600 billion range yearly. They figure that each weekend shoppers lose valuable time visiting an average of four stores to find all the items & ingredients they seek. But with Groceries by MasterCard, the first grocery shopping app integrated into Samsung’s The Family Hub refrigerator, shoppers can restock their refrigerator from the comfort of their kitchens. Shown at CES earlier this year, it's now available at major retailers such as Home Depot, Sears, Lowe’s, Best Buy and others. With the free app you can browse and order groceries from FreshDirect and ShopRite by via the 21.5” LCD Wi-Fi-enabled touchscreen on the refrigerator. As you “browse” through selections, the app provides details on the products as if you’re reading a label in-store. If you are on-the-go, you can add to the cart via the app available for iOS and Android. All items are added to a single, family cart, which can be built throughout the week by all members of your family. You’ll pay for items in a simple checkout that accepts any U.S.-issued credit and debit cards, and can get the items delivered to your home or pick it up at your convenience. You can even view the inside of the fridge with your smartphone while grocery shopping. Three tiny, high quality cameras positioned inside the refrigerator capture an image each time the doors close. Now, if you are at the store and trying to remember which food items to buy, you can view inside the refrigerator through a smartphone app. You can also use the screen to access your favorite music, television content or access recipes rated and reviewed by millions of cooks, as well as cooking advice tips and how-to videos. There are several models in the line starting at about $4999.99. Be aware that similar models from Samsung are available without the screen, video cameras, etc. for a lot less.
