OIP 13 - Automate groceries #13

Maybe connected to https://github.com/ethdevberlin/OIPS/issues/12

I've seen Rewe deliveries in our building, so we could also just join that and shop things online. This could eventually lead to everyone deciding together what should be bought. Regarding delivery date/time, someone would have to be at the office, yes, but I don't think this would be too hard to coordinate once a week or twice a month.

Oh yes, I wanted to proceed like that earlier, but I figured out that this doesn't work for fruit, as food perishes quite fast and because the min. amount with Rewe is quite high (so they would deliver only every 2 weeks). This means that fruit still have to be purchased at the supermarket every week, so finally it's more convenient to purchase everything there.

However, no problem for deciding together what should be bought and telling it to Edyta. Also, it allows us to be sure that everything is provided and stored on Monday mornings.

How about first asking her to stop with sweets and to provide the same pastry I provided? Afterwards, we can still optimise further

There is an store 1 min from the office on Reuterplatz, maybe if #12 gets accepted we can redirect some $$$ to getting fruit from there (as it's a bit more expensive than a supermarket chain). It's close, organic and independent so may be worth it.

Thanks for the update @mvglasenapp

I agree with @Schaeff . If https://github.com/ethdevberlin/OIPS/issues/12 and https://github.com/ethdevberlin/OIPS/issues/13#issuecomment-559477192 are accepted, we could do most groceries with Rewe online, and get organic fruits at store.

Getting fruit from "Kraut und Rübe" sounds good to me and feasible. However, ordering groceries "all together" with Rewe online and making sure that someone is here to receipt and store it sounds difficult to organise, or at least less automated than having someone making sure that everything is provided on Monday mornings and refilled on Wednesday mornings. However, we can always decide together what to purchase..

We'll start to get fruit from "Kraut und Rübe" tomorrow
