Tom Thumb appears to have begun operations in the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex a little over a year ago. (Star-Telegram: Tom Thumb, Albertsons launch home grocery delivery service)
The Tom Thumb service delivers your online orders for a local supermarket (e.g. Tom Thumb or Albertson's) and brings them by van to your home. The delivery staff will put your shopping bags wherever you like and you do not tip them.
My familiarity with supermarket delivery is not in Fort Worth but in New England with Peapod which I found extremely useful and low cost. That seems to be true as well for the Tom Thumb service and you can see the capability on their site: Tom Thumb | Ingredients for Life.
The situation was still lacking a review and I didn't see much but this one is a highly-personable delivery from a young lady trying it out for the first time.
At sixty-six, there is high value in this since it's ten bucks for a delivery of $150 or more in supermarket products. There may be a fuel surcharge which presumably relates to the distance from the store to your house. That charge is flat since the drivers are not allowed to accept tips.
The offset is there's also high value in going to market if only to keep the dogs marching. If they don't march, they get lazy, see.
More review will come since Yevette needs to know about this since she loathes going to market. She also loathes anyone coming inside the house here but that still works as they will be fine delivering the bags to the porch and you need to be there anyway to accept the delivery.
There's one more reason in favor due to the security since it's Disaster City if the car breaks and you know what it costs to fix them. However, if you're dialed into supermarket delivery, you can get along for a substantial period of time without ever going anywhere. That's not a pitch for the optimal solution for anything but rather it's making the best of things if they turn seriously sub-optimal.
Ten bucks for the save when it will cost a grand to fix the car? Hey, load up the truck, Market Man, and bring it on down.
It appears competition turns up in this business and you have probably heard of Amazon Fresh which does something similar. The product prices probably won't differ much but there should be substantial pressure on delivery prices.
- Insert usual litany about the robots are coming since the orders prepared most efficiently and for least cost will be the winners -
