Habitat by Honestbee: Review

As someone who would always pick self-checkout over traditional cashier-staffed checkout, I was thrilled to hear that Honestbee was introducing a high-tech supermarket, Habitat, with a completely cashless payment system that required minimal interaction with other humans.
