Comment on Show HN: Fresh baked bread, delivered to your door via SMS

Comments

I'm excited about this.

I think you'd be better off with a delivery fee instead of rolling it in to the cost. My local wine shop sells fresh baked bread from the local bakery. I go in 2-3 times a week for bread, and they've gotten to know me as a regular. Each loaf is $3 and I'll buy one or two depending on what I'm doing that night.

If I just wanted one loaf, I'd be okay footing the extra $3 for the bread. Walking to the wine shop is pretty freaking annoying, and I think they might resent me for rarely buying cheese/wine.

But if I wanted two loaves, I just can't imagine spending $12.

That's just me. If you take anything away from this post, let it be this: When you come to Boston/Cambridge, get Iggy's bread. Or pick a few North End bakers.

Another thought...maybe go cheap on the bread and build margin into cheese/meats. Call it the Car-cuterie ;)

Since we're recommending Boston-area bakeries, allow me to put in a good word for When Pigs Fly!
