I second the motion RE Target’s pick up at service desk service. As mentioned, their own employees who are the ones who stock the shelves do the picking, so mistakes don’t happen. Once ready, show your ID, in and out of the store within minutes.

Before the pandemic we used Target for non-perishables anyway, so this isn’t very different.

Would consider trying Walmart except our closest Walmart doesn’t offer the service, and nearest one that does is a super-busy store that was total chaos before the pandemic.

Had a coupon code for BJ’s to waive the $14.99 delivery fee so we used them once. Plus is that we were able to get fruits, vegetables, dairy, etc that way. Must have lucked out and gotten a good picker, because she did well. Texted me as she shopped if something was out of stock–I could approve or reject the substitution.

We plan supermarket runs around times we have to be out anyway (prescription pick up, doctor’s appt, etc). Keep using the same store so we know it well, in and out as quickly as possible.
