I am there hitting "refresh" on my browser and ready for the weekly drop as soon as my preferred meat and dairy are loaded onto the shelves. Best of luck, but you cannot beat me. Thanks for playing.


So when I buy it in person before your personal shopper arrives, you’ll just get a bad substitution. You know that putting it into your online shopping cart doesn’t actually mean the shopper is standing there waiting for you to click, right?

Thank you!


So much of the US products are made in China, from medicine to clothes, to toiletries and nuts and bolts. China has been in shutdown and companies have not moved fast enough to transfer their productions from china to other countries. That’s my theory.

I'm a super elastic shopper so I always just assume *this* product is from the other store, and / or the store doesn't stock it any longer because it's not in demand vs. vice versa

You’re deliberately choosing an expensive product. It’s like buying a necklace from
Cartier and complaining about the cost.


You could not be more uninformed and wrong about this. Sensodyne is the only toothpaste brand that does not contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), which is a leading cause of canker sores. My flare ups have drastically reduced since switching to this brand 3 years ago. Again, this brand of toothpaste used to cost no more than $5, and now costs over $9. It has only increased to guys amount in the past few months, so something is definitely up.

Target and Amazon have 3-packs for $17.49 . Learn to shop wisely.


+1
and Walgreens has a knock-off brand, same ingredients. Sometimes I think people on here are thick.

I don't buy that much at all we just have two people in our household so many things are out of stock and I can't get them. I don't know what's going on but more annoying it how everything thats going on in the world right now is pretty much all being ignored by most of the media.

I just bought a house that needs all new appliances. The fastest I could get LG brand basic appliances delivered was 16 days after placing the order with Home Depot. According to a sales associate lots of appliances are out of stock.

Deli lunch meat is impossible to get a giant like boar's head classic chicken has been "out of stock" for weeks. I'm told they haven't been delivering to giant.

Why are you buying your tooth paste at the grocery store? Toiletries are ALWAYS overpriced at grocery stores. Get thee to a drugstore, a warehouse store, or something like Walmart/Target.
