So crazy insta cart is a thing for use cases other than substantial disability... which it must be I guess? It's too well known for such a small niche. Every time I see it mentioned I am shocked.
It’s good for people without transportation, too. A family of four taking the bus where they need to go? Fine. A family of four hauling a family of four’s worth of groceries home on the bus? Less fine. Especially if the bus stop isn’t actually close to their home. Then it’s a family of four (if you can even get them all together at the same time because you need the extra hands) hauling a family of four’s worth of groceries (including bulky stuff like toilet paper) down city blocks or through industrial areas or rural areas or wherever, for however long it takes. Throw in a broken bag now and then, and… yeah. Grocery delivery is a much better option.
This is a good point too. The nice thing about Walmart delivery is that you can change your address.
So if you typically have it delivered to your home address, but you fly somewhere on vacation and don’t get a rental car, you can have Walmart deliver your groceries to your vacation spot. That’s a lot cheaper than using a taxi to get groceries, or buying every meal you eat on vacation - especially if you have a family!
You’d be blown away at the amount of people that use delivery services for groceries and other restaurant deliveries. I know of a few that do it multiple times a week, and anecdotally, these are also the same people that complaining about not being able to afford things.
??? I mean not all of these pickup services cost extra. Instacart costs more, but Walmart pickup is free. I get it all the time so I don't have to wade through the zoo that is Walmart.
I feel like Walmart+ is in a different category, I would compare it more to Amazon prime than instacart, Uber eats, DoorDash, etc.
Safeway deliver is basically $5 a month
It's a boon even for the mildly or moderately disabled, but truly a godsend for the significantly disabled. Sucks that it costs more and sometimes you get some stupid replacements, but so it goes.
