Which amounts to about 8 orders since at this point I only use them when I feel desperate for time and a physical break, and then always swear I'll never use them again. Today they are going to be an hour late - I have to go to work - so my husband had to cancel his plans. What a headache!Elenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19708882.post-26019359016331714822008-10-04T15:21:00.000-04:002008-10-04T15:21:00.000-04:00Hi Jenny- Great strategy, you're right about the c...Hi Jenny- Great strategy, you're right about the cab fare and I can't resist random snacks too! Oh a tub of hummus here, a box of cheez its there and I have this bad habit of never finishing what I buy. Online at least I can restrict myself to 1 or 2 "treats" :)minihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317753645794344353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19708882.post-42449300261972513582008-10-04T12:06:00.000-04:002008-10-04T12:06:00.000-04:00I love Peapod!

E and I both work and until recently didn't have a car, so that would mean taking a cab with heavy items (such as the cases of diet mountain dew and diet coke that E is addicted to). A cab is almost always more than the $6.95 delivery if I spend over $100 at peapod. <BR/><BR/>I think it also saves us a lot of time, money and caloric intake. This is because when we go we to the store, E always gets distracted by the Little Debbie and Entenmann's products and we come home with a lot more snack foods than we intended.<BR/><BR/>My Peapod strategy is that I shop the specials tab first and then fill in the essentials if they didn't come up in the specials. This allows for trying new products and also is satisfying at the end when the tab shows you how much you "saved".Jenny T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05984729102072363118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19708882.post-5263405671790158132008-10-03T14:34:00.000-04:002008-10-03T14:34:00.000-04:00Hi claire- Totally! and it can even be therapeutic...Hi claire- Totally! and it can even be therapeutic at times :)minihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317753645794344353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19708882.post-32190646434007314212008-10-03T13:00:00.000-04:002008-10-03T13:00:00.000-04:00I know it's a useful service, but I like grocery s...I know it's a useful service, but I like grocery shopping, especially for produce.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
