First pick up of groceries ordered online went fairly well, after I established the young man telling me over the phone where to park didn't know the east from the west. Waited with trunk and door open for about 20 minutes before a young lady rolled out my order on a flatbed cart. She quickly loaded up everything, asked me where I wanted the receipt, graciously accepted a tip, and was gone in under two minutes.

From what I can tell, got about 90% of what was ordered. What I didn't get I did not allow substitutes, but none of those were critical items. All in all a positive experience, we will definitely do this again.

It's the only way I shop now. If you don't mind subs, you will probably go up to 98% of an order. I put that on par of what I used to forget myself when I shopped in store. :) Welcome to the world of online groceries!

Well, no relapse. I can count to seventy in one breath and run up and down the stairs several times and recover to normal breathing in a minute. I'm fine! Just stuck here. (And the emergency package never showed up. Worst Xmas ever. Well I got my life. That's quite good!)

So good to hear that you are breathing well, a great sign.

I’m sorry to hear your package didn’t arrive yet. Perhaps it’s just relayed. Glad your breathing better. Did you have the virus?

Lots of good points in that video, social distancing is needed, and hoarding needs to be stopped. The people doing this don't seem to understand that by them clearing shelves that they are seriously affecting vulnerable or high risk people. The elderly, or immune deficient people are having to make extra trips and travel to other areas (sometimes hot spots) looking for items they need to survive because of this :'( and if they don't have someone that can travel out for them, a lot of them are going without for fear of getting sick. My husband is an Essential worker and has to go out, so we call our neighbors and family members to ask if they need items, and then he makes 1 trip weekly to shop, and does door drops. But I still get concerned because I worry about him getting sick from either his job (working with 300 other people) or traveling to the store. And in our area's and in lots of places across our state, stores are enforcing new shopping rules, NO children, 1 person, 1 cart. They've taped off the floors to 1 direction traffic and have markers every 6 feet of where to wait while paying, and are asking people not to use cash.

Same rules here now. Our Governor put that in place last week.
