I tried Walmart pick up once but I find it I spend more time on computer shopping, picking up, and returning stuff that they substituted than the time I would've spent if I went on my own. I go to H-E-B around 6-7 pm on weekdays. A lot less people than any other time. I wouldn't tip those employees, we don't tip cashiers.
@RER0119 : Some of us have busy schedules , crying kids, or we cant seem to find items in short amount of time. If a service is offered that makes your life more convenient, why not use it? Also if it is not needed for you, do your own shopping.
I set up an order from Kroger today. I have 3 kids and have to go to work at 530. I was going to make some stuff: turkey breast, gb casserole, sweet potatoes. I work all weekend but it gives my family food for a few days. I have a lot of the stuff but just need some extra things. It's no fee with $35 purchase so why not?
Walmart curbside employees always ask me to do the review. It's my understanding that they can qualify for a bonus or raise based on the reviews...not 100% sure of that, but I always give them good reviews and name the employees if I can remember their names during the long 5 minute drive home. Curbside grocery shopping is the only way I want to grocery shop. I can name about 10,264 other things I'd rather be doing with my family than spending two hours in a grocery store.
In the 50s stay at home wives used delivery services from the local market. I don't see a problem with working people using such services today. I prefer to go before work or after 8 p.m. I don't trust others to select my produce, lol.
