[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you running errands right now?  Amazon prime should be your best friend.  Target delivers free for orders $35 and up.  And many places are going back to doing curbside.  Our kids have not been on a single errand with us since last March!  Either one of us stays home, but most delivered or curbside.  Even prescriptions can be brought out to the car. [/quote]

We do that a lot, although mostly with Amazon. Using Shipt has been a disaster almost every time we've tried to use it. The stores' inventory systems are simply not good enough to keep track of what they actually have, so almost every time we've used it I've had to go to store anyways.

I know a lot of people use those delivery services, though. I don't understand how they do it without always running into missing items.[/quote]

I'm the pp.  Inventory issues have gotten better.  Really- we have hardly run any errands in person since march.  We do banking online.  Groceries get delivered, and sometimes we don't get exactly what we need but we make it work and try re-ordering that item the next week.  Prescriptions curbside.  I really don't understand what you need to get?  Can you be specific?  We have ordered toilet paper, paper towels, soap, detergent, vitamins, contact lense cleaner - ALL ONLINE!  I don't wait until I have one roll of paper towels left to order more, so I never run into the issue of "needing" to run out to get them.  Think of all the things you might need in the next month and put them in a Target cart, then it will ship for free.  If they can't deliver something, try putting it in your grocery delivery.  Holiday gifts and wrapping paper all ordered online.  I am someone who never did as much online ordering pre-covid- I liked going places in person.  But we have been able to make it work without going inside places for months- you can too!

I really think you are making this harder for yourself!
