Does anyone use the grocery delivery service Shipt?

I used it a couple of times. You actually set the delivery time table. So one saturday morning I woke up, made my shopping list and requested a delivery time between 10 and 11 (or something like that). A couple of the items weren't available so the shopper would contact me via text to see about alternatives. As for delivery, I had one guy actually just hand me everything at the door, nice and simple. The next time the girl had used her own tote bags to help her carry the groceries up (they were still bagged) and wanted to actually bring the groceries to my kitchen. I didn't care for that to happen, so I just pulled the bags out of the totes right there at the door.

No issues at all with produce...they bagged them like you would for fresh produce, and then just wash 'em off as you always would.

Prices are a little more expensive than going yourself and you also should probably tip the shopper (I always did) so it's gonna end up costing you 10-15% more by having everything delivered if I had to make an uneducated guess.

When it was all said and done, I just didn't feel like it was worth the monthly expense for as little as I used it, but it was kinda cool.

It is based here in Birmingham, and we've been using it almost a year. My wife found a Black Friday deal last year online where the annual membership was only $50 instead of $100, so we jumped on it. Similar to the other responses, we've used it some, but it seems like we haven't used it much in the past month. Here they partner with Publix and a local grocery store called Western supermarket. I love that because the Western has better meats and produce.

My wife works part time and we have a small child, so if she can save taking him to the store after a half day of work, she would much rather just log into the app and place an order. And it has saved all of those trips to the store for me after work when we just needed a few things. You're paying for convenience.

All of the shoppers we have had deliver have been helpful, and some even like to bring it in for you. I don't have a problem with that. One of our good friends is a shopper and she loves that it is like Uber and flexible. She can log in and see orders in her area and select them. She says it is worth it when you get 2-3 orders at the same time and you can shop for that and deliver them all within a few minutes.

Most of the time you can get your orders within about 2 hours. A shopper has to select it, then of course do the shopping, but they're pretty quick. They will also text you or call you if they're out of something on your list. The good thing is the Shipt app has all of the specials like BOGO or 2 for something loaded in it, so you get to see what is on sale. I think they do have a little bit of markup on some things, but it isn't enough to really matter.

We have never submitted an order and not had it filled. I was actually at my parents house last night visiting family that was in town and we were talking about Shipt. Seems my Mom gets the same couple of shoppers over and over. My sister said the same. They usually order and want it delivered in the evening after work, and I guess the shoppers do their shopping in patterns as well.

yeah, I literally submitted my list on a saturday at like 8:30 or 9am and had it delivered by 11am, it was the first delivery time available.

We use Amazon Prime Now(Groceries and Restaurants), Instacart, and UberEats. Being social and going to stores/restaurants is for losers.

I'm really interested in this shipt service since it has Kroger and central market whereas primenow only has sprouts which is extremely limited in things I actually buy.

I don't believe they deliver alcohol (at least in BHM). I'm assuming they would deliver toiletries etc.
