Re: Do you use online grocery shopping?
Yes! Oh Yes! Dogfood, weekly shop, xmas pressies, birthday bounquets, light bulbs, theatre tickets, rail tickets, printer ink...just about everything except shoes.
I LOATHE shopping! My idea of hell is wasting time walking round shops comparing prices, being condescended to or ignored by shop assistants, standing in a queue behind some dozy female who dosn`t know if it`s Wednesday or breakfast, then having the priviledge of lugging it all home.
rant over.

Re: Do you use online grocery shopping?
I was in an accident at the beginning of the summer and on line shopping has been a fantastic help. Its so easy and reliable. It arrives on time. They carry it into the kitchen and check I'm happy with it before they take the moneyNow I've reached the stage of being able to go out and shop I'm not sure that I want to. I think I buy more extras in the shop so that, along with the fuel costs, must offset the delivery charge.

Re: Do you use online grocery shopping?
I do
I use Asda for my food shop weekly. But I've decided not to bother after this weeks delivery. They keep missing stuff out, but charging me, so then I have to ring them which costs me. It's a nightmare lately, I'd rather go into the supermarket and then I know I have the items I need to make the meals I've planned for the week x

Re: Do you use online grocery shopping?
Online food shopping is not for me, I am one of those people who taste the grapes, root around for the last possible sell by date and go to the box underneath for the freshest fruit and vegetables
. Shopping on line you have to put up with that which you are given.
I don't buy everything from the supermarket anyway, I get meat from the butcher (I like it freshly cut not some old piece which has been laying around for days ) and fish from the fishmonger and I like to inspect everything before I decide if I want to buy it or not.

Re: Do you use online grocery shopping?
I think I have the best of both ways, Meg. Stuff like milk, juice, noodles, rice, cat food bird seed, kitty litter, chicken broth, things like that I'm quite content to let them pick up for me. I'm like you with inspecting the fruit, vegetables, salad greens myself; wouldn't trust anyone else to do that.I guess we work out what suits us best.

Re: Do you use online grocery shopping?
I have a French attitude to shopping I need to see it and check it for freshness and quality. I will then adjust my menu to the best buys based on price and quality. This, of course, only applies to food and wine. I must admit if I have to shop in Tesco's (spit) I avoid all their own brands like the plague.|
