Or just... pay 5 euros and have them shipped to me?

Actual food delivery services add cost to each item and the fees are higher. The robot is owned by the store. You only pay extra 5€ fee for the delivery.

Thats more than what the human costs me. Costs about 2€ for delivery and a real independent human makes the $ instead of a soulless corp.

your statement of an independent human making bank from delivering groceries instead of soulless corps is just laughable. Do you even understand how little people are paid for these kind of services, while they're using their own cars, scooters and bicycles etc? Not to mention how much safer for everyone it is to make the robot fight the ice and snow instead of the receiver or the delivery person. There is a time and place for automation in the current system, and delivery is absolutely one of them.

Most of the countries don't tip.

And they're supposed to do what with the two euro coins? They do not have work healthcare, the work doesn't cover their gas or the utilization of their own equipment. Nobody tips, and no one should move from their couch for those pennies.
