| I need advice on what to buy and send to someone. She relies on bus transportant and finding it difficult to bring home anything heavy or large. As you can image. I plan on placing an online order and shipping it to her. So far I have laundry detergent, TP and bottled water. Shopping at either Target or Walmart online. Anything you think I should get? |

Paper towels? Does she eat cereal? Cans of soup? That would new good one. Friends of mine used soap.com for that sort of thing and spoke highly of it.

| What is this for? Is she destitute? How about some canned food (not sure if this available online), toiletries (eg, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo), new shoes? |

| When my MIL needed help, I used Safeway delivery. Ordered online and had it delivered for food and other necessities. If it were shoes or other goods, it depends on sizing/what she needs. |

| Buy a huge package of toilet paper. Dishwasher detergent if she has a dishwasher. Anything in jars or cans that she gets. Prune juice, spaghetti sauce, etc. |

| Does Peapod or similar deliver to her area? |

| Peapod's a good idea if she's in the right area. Do you have Amazon Prime? If so, the Amazon Pantry might be helpful. |
