They had those “re-order product” physical buttons for a while which you were supposed to glue to your washing machine so you could reorder when your detergent ran out.
Besides legal issues (at least over here all they could do is put things in your shopping cart) apparently the primary customers of those buttons were hardware hackers, turning them into all kinds of stuff.
