I live in the Pacific Northwest and am pretty effectively iced into my house
due to this storm.

I normally get an organic produce box on Wed. but am not getting it this
week because there was just too much in there we wouldn't eat, even if I
made 3 changes.  I normally work at my daughter's school on Wed. and had an
appointment there with one of the teachers so I was just going to swing by
the grocery store on the way home.  I do have plenty of things like dried
beans, rice, canned vegetables and nuts, so we wouldn't starve.  But I'm
almost out of meat and seriously low on fresh produce.  And it was the fresh
produce I was Jonesing for.

I was about to give up hope when someone suggested delivery from the store.
I had never done this before.  Luckily there are two stores near me that
deliver.  I chose Albertson's because they were offering free delivery for
first time users and I also got two free food items although one of those
choices wasn't too diabetic friendly.  The other was green salad!  :)  The
delivery trucks are equipped to handle snow and ice where my van is not.

Now I don't have to worry about skiing across the ice with my disabled feet
even if my husband could manage to drive me to the store after work.  And I
was able to stock up on batteries since we had a power outage and I used up
all of my "D" size.  The selection wasn't as good as it would have been in
the store.  For instance, I had to settle for celery hearts instead of whole
celery, but I was able to get almost all of what I needed or very close to
it.

Another suggestion she had was to call the store, have them package my order
and then send a taxi to pick it up and pay for it then deliver it.  Luckily
I didn't have to go that route because I think taxis are few and far between
in this neck of the woods and I'm not so sure they would be equipped for a
delivery either.  But it saves me from attempting to order a pizza for my
husband and several bags of salad for me!

Oh and my daughter loved it because I let her do the ordering.  It took her
over 2 hours but it will count as her homework since there was reading and
spelling involved.  Heh!
