What it does

The task

Check the store stock for item at the shops of retailers within distance of location. For each store, read the stock level, the price, the opening hours and the earliest pickup time. Get the drive time from Google Maps. Give me a table, the nearest store with stock first. Ask me before you reserve the item for pickup.

  • It works in Best Buy, Walmart and Google Maps, in the workspace you pick, and signs in with passwords from your Cuiar vault.
  • It runs once, when you start it.
  • It stops for your approval before it sends, posts, pays, books or changes a record.
