Inventory is a problem everywhere. By the time the shopper gets to the shelf the item may have been taken by a shopper in the store or another shopping service. Can't blame them for that.
Local television station KPIX in their 6 pm news promo said that they would be having a segment on the problem getting deliveries. When the segment was going to be shown they said that there would be a delay and it will shown tomorrow (Wednesday 2020.03.25) night. Things are messed up everywhere.
How Will You Spend The Stimulus Money?
This thread is directed for folks in the US. Wondering how you plan on spending the upcoming stimulus funds. As of now, it looks like it will be between $1000 and $200 per adult. For my wife and I, we'll just save it. Other thoughts?
Not on groceries, at least for online delivery. Before you could pick and choose a time and order anything no problem but for weeks now there is simply no delivery available at any time on any day from the likes of Amazon fresh, Safeway, etc where I live (SF bay). Obviously unprepared and maybe that’s understandable but there’s nothing in terms of any public update as to when deliveries will resume. Visiting their websites to order is currently a big waste of time. And the response so far is just the typical corporate nonsense about all the great things there are doing responding to the Coronavirus, but as always actions speak louder than words.
On the other hand, Grubhub, which I never thought was particularly great for restaurant deliveries, has really stepped up their game and service from them in my area is actually markedly better now than it was before. But the big players like Amazon of all places seem stymied. Go figure.
I’ve used them. Scheduling and delivery seems to be fine but the problem is that at least so far they don’t/can’t deliver about half of what you order through them so apparently they don’t update inventory often or often enough.
