I Am Alive! January 4th, 2022 Bringing Home the Groceries!

ironshield in We Are Alive Tribe • 2 years ago

Instacart is Very Convenient

One of our favorite outings that I used to do with my wife was we would regularly go the grocery store together. We would enjoy talking about different products, finding the best prices, etc.

As our family has grown (we're a family of 8 now), we've had to go solo to the store. That is until everything got flipped upside-down. Since then we've discovered instacart! We had them delivered to our door for a while and that was extremely easy. Since the fees have gone up, we pickup at the store.

Today's mission was to bring home the groceries. Wow we got a lot of groceries. A few taps on the iPad, a little drive to the local Aldi, and I'm bringing home a car full of groceries!

I prefer it when groceries are picked in the store than from instamarkets because while going around the mall you will definitely see something you didn't know you had need for.
It's nice that you could shop for your groceries.

That's a good point, although we find that "impulse buys" go down, especially as we can see the total as we put items into the cart. We miss the real-life shopping, but this is much more convenient.

I still enjoy browsing at a local grocery store, just to see what they have and how their stock is doing. I usually bring one of my little ones with me.

The internet has made a lot of things easy. This saves you a lot of time and you can compare prices at the comfort of your home. It's unfortunate that delivery fees have gone I but I guess picking them up isn't so bad. Happy new year

Instacart and the various other delivery options make it very easy to not be exposed to people during those trying times. We live in a rural area and the only option was to order online to the grocery store in the near by town which was 13 miles away for pick up. Take care

Thank you for your comment!

Being able to pick up groceries curb-side is a great convenience and we should always be careful about exposure to contagions. Although I hope society doesn't continue this anti-social trend for too long, civilization needs person-to-person contact to survive.
