I think competing on price alone against behemoth like Amazon is a losing strategy for local businesses. For example I could be buying a case of wine online but I go to my local wine store because even though it is a little more expensive the owners are good at recommending wines and they constantly refresh their selection. Which is great for someone like me who isn't a connoisseur.

Although I agree with this for the most part, it goes both ways. A huge use case for this app (for me at least) is to be able to quickly look up product reviews by other consumers. If I'm already in the store, I might well buy the product there if it was given good reviews on amazon. In this case, amazon has spent the money to develop the app but the store gets my money.
