Shopping in the age of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Normally this guide
would consist of me telling you about the best things to buy and the best deals
for this month. However, so much has changed in our world in such a short
period of time, especially the way we are shopping.
With countries,
states, counties, and cities going on lockdown, limiting our abilities to move
around freely for our normal shopping trips and with job layoffs and furloughs
most of us are focusing on necessity shopping only. We're also finding
ourselves ordering most of those necessities online, either for delivery or for
pickup while the world is practicing in social distancing.
As grocery shopping
is an essential part of everyday life, grocery stores are making it even easier
for you to get those essentials without ever having to step foot in their
store, with grocery pickup and even delivery directly to your front door. Walmart Grocery has grocery pickup
and even offers home delivery in some areas. Target
offers home delivery through Shipt.
Other grocery stores
that offer grocery pickup and/or delivery are Publix, Aldi, Kroger, Wegmans, Costco, Wholefoods,
Albertsons, Sprouts…etc.
Another service similar to Shipt which
partners with hundreds of retailers nationwide that offer grocery delivery
straight to your door is Instacart.
Grocery delivery
companies are not anything new, some are even solely online grocery companies
such as Boxed, Thrive Market, AmazonFresh, FreshDirect
and Misfit Market.
In these uncertain
times saving money on basic necessities is as important as ever. One of my go-to coupon and coupon code browser extensions is Honey. I also recommend using
cashback apps to earn money back on your everyday purchases. My favorite
cashback apps are Ibotta,
Rakuten, and Fetch
Rewards.
Most companies are
experiencing unusually high order volumes, and product shortages resulting in
shipping delays and products out-of-stock Due to high demand, orders could be
delayed. Please be patient as our truck drivers, stock personnel and delivery
drivers work tirelessly to keep up with the current supply and demand.
