Fast Five | A Scanless Starbucks, A Sleepy Gap Colab & Why Amazon May Soon Be The King Of Campus

In this week’s Omni Talk Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Firework, SPS Commerce, and Sezzle, Chris and Anne had a wee delight discussing (and sometimes ranting about):

  • How much they would use Starbucks' new scanless pay feature at the drive thru
  • The long-term implications of the Shein and Forever 21 partnership
  • The brilliance of Amazon combining its Just Walk Out technology with campus delivery and Grubhub
  • Gap’s insanely ludicrous sleepwear collaboration with Macy’s
  • And closed with a look at Sephora's new mobile checkout pilot and whether other retailers should rush to emulate it

There’s all that, plus Capri Sun, Billy bookcases, and why no one should ever raise their hands even if they are Sure.
