I have found myself scarfing down a Big Y muffin in the car on the drive home more times than I would care to admit. Revolting. I can identify.

Although I think I would end up saving the ten dollars, because I wouldn't be buying random shit impulsively, like I often do. I would think that I could use the service for non perishable items and other times when i want to pick out my meat (hehe) I can just go to the store. You make some good points jen boyle.

Maybe I'm cynical, but I'm convinced they will pick out the least fresh vegetables, meats and dairy, just to reduce their stock. I can't imagine letting somebody else pick out my produce. Additionally, I do make up my grocery list from the Big Y online flyer, and it doesn't seem to be comprehensive. I usually end up finding a few items at the store that were on sale that weren't in the flyer. Also meats that are reduced because they have been sitting there a while. This is basically how I buy all of my chicken. Also, $10 seems really steep to me. Especially if I can't use coupons or coins, which it doesn't say if you can or not, but I don't see how you could. Maybe I'm just too cheap for something like this. I'm in a crochety old person demographic now. I don’t know.

If so, that's awesome. Are you able to save your shopping list online and just return to it next time you need to order? If so, that’s awesome.

A good point is made in the article about Peapod. "It's like waiting around for the cable guy," D'Amour said. I kind of like taking the delivery part out of it and just offering the shop-online-and-pick-it-up-later part. Yeah, Peapod isn’t in Holyoke yet. A good point is made in the article about Peapod.

I think it might save someone like me, an impulse buyer, from spending too much too. Stop N Shop has a delivery program, but sadly, not in Holyoke (last I checked).
