With so much of our shopping being done online these days, it seems like there’s nothing that can’t be delivered to our front door within a matter of days (or even hours) with just the click of a few buttons—that includes groceries.
But what are the benefits of grocery delivery? And is it worth it to get groceries delivered?
Read on to learn more about the benefits of grocery delivery services.
No need to put on pants
Going to the grocery store can be a real hassle sometimes. First, you’ve got to find the time to get to the store. Then you’ve got to put on real pants (pajamas won’t do in public) and make sure you’ve got your wallet, keys, mask and any other accessories you might need. When you’re there, you’ve got to find a parking space, wait in line, drive home, bring the bags inside, etc.
With grocery delivery, you don’t even need to put on real pants. You don’t even have to see the delivery person, as they can drop the bags at your door and send you a notification on your smartphone when they’ve done so.
A grocery store at your fingertips
Sometimes being at the grocery store can be helpful—you might see things you forgot you needed or find a good deal on sale items. Those aspects of grocery shopping are still available to you with grocery delivery services, and sometimes they can be even better.
Some grocery delivery services will be able to suggest items for you based on your shopping habits or what’s already in your virtual cart. They may also suggest sale items that you might have missed if shopping in person.
You can order anything from a grocery delivery service that you would normally buy in the store. That includes canned and packaged goods, as well as fresh produce, meat and dairy. Maybe even throw a little treat in there for yourself, while you’re at it.
Order from anywhere
If you’re running short on time, you might not be able to make it to the grocery store—but you’re still going to need groceries. With grocery delivery services, you can order groceries while you’re at work, at soccer practice, in line at the bank or anywhere else you may find yourself with a few minutes to spare.
You can use your smartphone to order groceries for delivery at a time that works for you. So if you have a busy day ahead but still need to get groceries, you can order in the morning or even the day before to receive your groceries on your schedule.
Choose your desired store
One of the best benefits of grocery delivery is that you have a variety of stores to choose from. This is especially great when you want to support your local market and take advantage of the quality ingredients they offer.
If you’re still wondering if it’s worth it to get groceries delivered, the best way to find out is to give it a try for yourself! Pick your favorite grocery delivery service, and place an order for groceries from Horner’s Midtown Market today.
