> Why have your ingredients mailed to you when a supermarket on your way home will offer the same thing for 50% cheaper?
Because, based on supermarket prices for similarly sized packages, it won't be 50% of the cost, and because the additional time for a supermarket stop takes up enough time to basically make it a wash, considering the money value of time, for people in the target market even if it was 50%.
