So I have it working well now, just got the second big delivery from walmart and can say im happy with it
I used to shop at winn dixie up until i started getting groceries delivered from walmart
i checked the winn dixie site but it's terrible. they don't have their own website, have limited selection, and charge much more than they do in the store.
Now costco doesn't have its own delivery set up in my area, site gives instacart as the way to get delivery from them, at the time i didn't want to set up instacart and costco membership. probly gonna look back on them in coming months and see if costco sets up its own delivery.
I'm planning on trying out other grocery delivery setups at some point to really optimize things, in time anyway, that seems to be the way that has worked for me in living with CFS, it's more important to get things going and then get them optimized later on since optimization often takes as much energy as getting them started in the first place, only with diminishing returns, where as if you just keep getting tasks done without optimizing you can get a lot more done, depending on situation.
So walmart's site is grocery.walmart.com , at least in my area. They have a good selection and good categorization, I really like that they have a favorite button next to each item, I favorite everything i buy then if i don't like the item when i get it i'll just unfavorite it next time. So here on this second order around half of the things i ordered i simply had to look at my favorite menu, select the number of the product i want and click order on it and so i don't have to visit those sections of the site and choose among a bunch of stuff.
Delivery charge is $5 and I give a $5 tip to the delivery driver each time through the email they send me after the groceries are delivered. It's strange though, the site says it charged me $127 but I get auto alerts from my bank on any charges over $50 with the dollars charged and the business making the charge, fraud prevention whatnot, and it said the charge was $134, wouldn't matter much though since I've been using discount codes I got online so the order would have been $137 without the discount this time. Checked it on my banks website and the walmart site and the amount charged is $134 and the walmart site claims it's $127 but for the first order from the other week the number walmart claimed it charged me was correct and I got money off through discount on that order, so, dunno, maybe just a fluke. Here is the site i've been using for the codes:
https://www.offers.com/walmart-grocery/?em=7129014 Looks like they have monthly codes, saving $10 a month or so sounds decent.
So the delivery time can be selected through the site in 1 hour increments, wont let you order stuff same day but will allow ordering for next day delivery. It's 8am-8pm seven days a week, and you select the hour you want and they arrive some time within that hour and you get a call on your phone saying they are outside, the dude helps you carry your groceries to where you want them and that's it.
Saves me a good bit of time and a hell of a lot of energy, grocery shopping wouldn't be quite so taxing if you could take a break in between steps, driving there/shopping/driving back/carrying/sorting, it's the nonstop nature that makes it so troublesome, so much more PEM from working without a rest.
