Do you guys think we'll reach a point where everybody orders their groceries online??

I was just on amazon for the first time in a while, and I saw this free trial for "groceries on demand."
Made me wonder how long it would be until that became the norm. Getting your groceries through the internet...or online. Whatever.
Will that be the thing some day??

yeah, i'm picky as fuck pickin out stuff like that, if fruit or veggies don't look absolutely perfect i usually just come back the next day, i would never trust delivery for them things nor would I trust getting dairy or meat products just due to the higher chances of someone or something fucking it up in the delivery process

I don't know if quite everyone would do it, but if it was no more expensive than going to the store then I would consider it.

I really can't see myself doing that. Maybe if it were much cheaper and food quality was high, then perhaps. But I never say never.
Most things I like handling myself. I'm not a big fan of lots of people handling my food, the less the better.

It's already in place and some people are already using it and it's a growing market. Right now it's mostly used for seniors but it'll catch on. I've seen ads about it.
Here's how the market works in marketing theory:

My local grocery store delivers 2x a week. It's mostly for old people and shut ins. You can fax them an order and it's $5 extra. I went on a few deliveries when I worked there. The craziest thing was delivering to a blind woman's house because all the lights were off and it was dark as fuck.
I like to go to the farmers markets for produce thou. You can see what is good and kind select what is seasonal rather than buying old ass apples from Chile.

thanks for taking the time to post a beautiful picture of groceries to accommodate the OP
Im going to have to go with yes. i can envision an application that would allow you to shop for groceries on demand so you can just drive up to a window and pick up

I'd say most people in high population density areas will be having their groceries delivered within the next decade.
Rural areas not so much.

Grocery stores around where I live have online ordering and delivery. It's the only way I buy groceries, and it's awesome. Costs like $10, and the groceries get dropped off at my door. It's a little weird when I answer the door high as fuck, but they never seem to mind.

Reminds me of the game, The sims, where you order the groceries and it sends them to your house. But you used a phone to do it on the game.

We already do order some groceries online... or more specifically through a phone app. It's awesome.

It has potential. I'd certainly use something like this if their shipping charges were reasonable.

At some grocery stores you can order everything online an pull up like at a drive through an they bring everything out to you. For a fee of course.

I hope so. Physical brick and mortar stores are a ridiculous waste of resources and serve little to no purpose in the modern age.
After my wife gave birth I used Safeway delivery a lot. I was at work, she was at home with a new born, going to a store would have have wasted our precious time. But Safeway is too expensive to use regularly.
