shopping cart  

Do you ever wonder how you are going to fit your food shopping into those weeks when you are just so busy you're lucky you remember your name?

Do you find that you buy more than what you went into the supermarket for in the first place?

Are you tired of your kids taking snacks off the end of the aisles when you're not looking and putting it in your cart?

Do you really want to stand on a long line after work for a pre-cooked chicken and a container of milk?

 Peapod

Stop and Shop, one of our local supermarkets, offers home delivery through their service called Peapod.  You can visit the website here.  You go online, make your purchases, pick your delivery date and time, pay by credit card and you are done.  You can make changes or add to your list up to 11:00 p.m. the night before your delivery. 

Delivery charges are $6.95 for $100.00 or more, and $9.95 for under $100.00.  They sometimes have promotions where you can get free delivery too. 

I have used this service and find it to be a lifesaver.  While they may not have everything online that they have in the store, I have not really come across this problem.  Your shopping list gets saved so that the next time you go online to make up your list you can save some time just by picking items off your previous list. 

So, if you'd like to cross one more thing off your "to do" list, give Peapod from Stop and Shop a try.

4 Comments on Stop and Shop - Have Your Groceries Delivered

This is good to know! I have a schwans man come by every two weeks, but the stuff seems so exspensive that i only buy a few things here and there. This sounds so different!

Shelle ~ Oh yes, it's great!  You get the same supermarket prices and specials, and I liken the delivery fee to saving gas money.

Kathy - My wife and I do this and it is great.  Not only does it save time and energy (we have two small children), but it actually saves money.  We find that we spend about 25% less when we have our groceries delivered than when we go to the store because there is no impulse buying.

Steven ~ Yes, I spend less too because I am actually sticking to my list.  I also like that I can schedule it to a day and time that is convenient for me.  Thanks for commenting Steven!
