Do you prefer going to the Supermarket or getting your food delivered?

 

[passenger]

I prefer selecting my own groceries; especially produce & meat.
So..........doing my own shopping.

 

[Scrooge]

I find it fun and relaxing going in but I'll often get a lot of stuff I don't really need whereas when I do online shopping I only look for what i need 🤦‍♀️

I don't do either, someone else shops for me but to answer the question, delivered as I don't like going out.

Going to the store. I dont really trust others to get my food for me other than family lol.

I do a lot of my grocery shopping online, and I actually prefer it to going to the supermarket. The main reason is that it's much easier to read the labels at home, so I don't have to worry about holding people up in a busy aisle while I'm trying to read. I know 'click and collect' is an option, but that doesn't work for me as I don't drive.
The only thing I don't like ordering online is fruit and vegetables. For that reason, I usually just get the basics delivered and then go out to to buy most of my fresh produce.
So, if I had to choose only one, I would definitely pick grocery delivery.

I have been all about getting my groceries delivered lately.

If I did not drive & needed to depend on public transportation, I'm sure that my answer to the question would be totally different. Maybe even exactly like yours .

I still go out a lot to buy things from places like Costco and ALDI, as there aren't many good delivery options for them. I can't complain, though, because my son takes me if I ask.

Ah, that's good!
Just an FYI; A fairly recent change here is that Costco now will deliver orders, so maybe your Costco will soon.

They have DoorDash available for Costco here now, but I don't see any point in paying for it. To be honest, I'm not a big fan of DoorDash anyway.

The main reason is that I live very close to a Costco, only about five minutes away. Also, my son gets his petrol there often because it's cheaper, so he can easily grab things for me while he's there sometimes.

I have not heard about a Door Dash/Costco connection here; I would not be interested either anyhow.
At least you don't have to trust some stranger to pick out your bananas for you; your son probably knows exactly how you like them if you need to ask him to pick some up for you.

I like to go to supermarkets to buy food. Before I buy food, I need to check labels, which is not possible when you are buying online and getting delivered to your doorstep.

Takes SOME time, but, I've found that it is possible to check most food product labels online.

I do agree with you, though....I like to choose especially my own produce & meat cuts.
