Free pick up is expensive. ( Archived) (1)

Jul 26, 2020 12:52 PM CST Free pick up is expensive.
I was sending boarder to shop at Wallyworld. So thought, hey, go to website and check what they have for price on cherries. First off, there is a short list of what you can get for free pickup. Nothing I buy, but lots of junk foods. Price was 4.99. Yikes!wow Aldis had ad for 1.99. Skip that. Delivery out here in farm land is nil.
So told boarder, check cherries, maybe went down. He said price was 3.99. So store is jacking up the prices on line to pay for the shopper to shop for you. Therefore free pickup is a lie.
I shops sales. The box store brags lowest ticket price. Yes..if you just grab what you want. But, if you shop sales at other stores, the total will be less. Way less.scold
The joke is free...like coupons. Rarely use them. Usually for stuff I don't buy anyway. Or a joke..save a dime if you buy two. How about I buy one and save double?
We have a generation or two who are lazy and spoiled. They use Uber eats or such to get restaurant food. The markup is nuts. I don't see it unless one is disabled. Or have no car or way to reach a restaurant and can't walk that far. Otherwise, just plain lazy.
One good thing with covid is people learning how to cook again. Too many waste money eating in restaurants all the time and sometimes eating questionable foods.
We are a jaded nation. Little is special anymore. Restaurants are a treat, they are essential. scold
