Common Sense tells me the one who will end up paying for it is Yours Truly.

During covid I have found a lot of places to deliver or pick up curbside

We have not done any of the pick up and delivery.  We just make a good list and get it one time a week.

Haven't done any grocery delivery service. The cost of delivery I'm not really too fond of. I'd rather shop for myself see what I want get what I want instead of having someone pick out stuff that i pick. I'm the type of person that likes to look at the stuff in the store hold it in my hand and decide

I think that the delivery service in my area is called instacart...

I just can’t trust that. Be care, they might just rob you blind!

I have been robbed many times online, but never went blind. I just shake it off and go find something that might work better. I never use my own household budget money though, just money I already made online.

Some stores in my area offer free delivery if you are over a certain amount.  I have had very good luck with the shoppers and delivery service.  I care for some elderly relatives and did not want to chance going out.  It is also a lot less time I spend in the store and buying impulse items.  I don't know if I will go back to instore grocery shopping (I know I really will) just for the time it saves me.

I have done WholeFoods delivery via amazon.com during the pandemic which is great. It does require a minimum order amount but is easy to fill with prices from wholeFoods. Quality is high and delivery can be in 2 hours, which is really cool for me. I also heard good things about Instacart. Thank you for flagging Any Cart, seems like a great deal to get started.

We still use HEB for our deliveries. AmazonFresh is good, too. I like Instacart as well.

Don't like no one picking my food out, that's just me.

Having your food of any kind delivered to your house isn't for me.  There are so many scammers probably doing the same thing and have worked out how to get your money.

I checked up on anycart.   In my area the only store they provide service for is Whole Foods and they are just too expensive a grocery for me.  5 bucks for a loaf of store brand white bread, No Thank You!  Besides I have an Aldi and a Kroger both within a couple of blocks walking distance.

That must be nice, I don't have any stores of any kind closer than a couple of miles and that is way beyond my walking range now days.

I don't use any services or order my groceries online.  I like to be the one to pick out what I need, especially my fresh vegetables.

I prefer going to a physical store. Even during Covid, I never stopped shopping in store. I like knowing exactly what I am getting.

A lot of stores now offer free delivery. I guess it's their marketing campaign to remain profitable. I always receive in my mailbox or email some promo codes for free delivery or discount for some products. I think that campaigns like this one are pretty standard for any store to compete in the market and to remain profitable. Besides, with the pandemic, it's become really convenient and safe for customers.

The only issue is that I don't really trust online payment methods. Once, my account was hacked, and since then, I have had trust issues with banks. However, my friend reassures me that chargeback prevention services (https://covery.ai/products/vmpi-chargeback-prevention/) help with issues like this.

I don't have either of those stores where I live.  I would not use it anyway because I like to pick out my own groceries, especially vegetables.

My daughter has used delivery from stores before, I think the first time was free and then they charge a delivery fee.
