Pretty sure that's what Google Product Search used to do. They ended up having to change it because the resulting quality of those listings was terrible.

See https://commerce.googleblog.com/2012/05/building-better-shop...

Maybe if they tried again they could do better this time; I'm a little skeptical though.

Wow, the screenshot in the post is like a parody. (And that's the "new Google Shopping experience").

That's pretty much how ads on Google used to look. They've improved quite a bit since then.
