    Why? I know several young families that just don’t have the time or a car to get groceries for the whole week, delivery services help them a lot

      How can you not have time to buy groceries? It’s not that big of a process.

      I understand not having a car though. Some places are not very walkable.

          If you don’t have an hour to buy food, there’s something supremely fucked up about your priorities.

        Depending on the situation/ location, it is truly possible. During massively busy times, I have employed these services. It absolutely can be a big process, especially with younger children and 2 jobs.

        It’s not so much that you literally have no time but spending the extra money is a way to get the time you would otherwise spend on groceries to do other things like spend actual time with the kids before they sleep and walk the dog before it’s dark.

      Also elderly people. Me or other family buy groceries for an aunt, she has Amazon for emergencies.
