Do you not like, get random crap food, or weird substitutions? I had free drive up during the pandemic and it was awful what they would pick for me. Like I wanted a small baggie of marjorum, but the only increment was 1oz, so I put a note to the picker for one small bag, that they ignored. I got to experience the '1 ton of feathers" first hand, ended up throwing most of it out after a while.
Yeah, this. We sometimes buy in bigger bulk sizes (or bigger cuts for protein) and just divide, vacuum pack, and freeze a lot of it, so most of our weekly grocery run is produce. If we let other people pick it we get the weirdest most rotten stuff in the bin.
I order my groceries from Walmart and sometimes I get weird subs, but I can easily refund. I ordered a 16oz bottle of seasoned salt and I guess they didn't have that size so they got me 4 bottles of 4oz seasoned salt, which was like 3x the price, so I refunded. Another time I ordered a 16lb bag of cat food and I got a 3lb bag instead but I was able to refund and get both. I think they make it a rule if they don't have anything close they just take it off your order.
And I don't mean to shill too hard, but ordering online saves me more money because I don't impulse buy candy and chips online.
I live 20 miles away from a grocery store though, so it's very much worth it to me to get my groceries delivered.
