Abstract
A product container includes sensors and logic that detects a product's weight and communicates the weight to a user's device. An indication may be provided that the product weight has fallen below a set threshold value for reordering, and the user may be prompted to reorder the product. The user may electronically reorder the product or a similar product from their device using one or more software applications.
