[Ohio-Talk] Grocery delivery services

[c16a19f at sbcglobal.net]

Hi again, Sadie,
I have two reccomendations for delivery of groceries and other items. 
1. Instacart is a delivery service company that delivers from a variety of grocery stores and other kinds of stores. You can register for free either on the phone using their senior accessibility line 844-981- 3433 or you can download and register for this service on the free Instacart app. You can place an order either with the app or over the phone on this same phone number. Order fees generally  total 15% of your total purchase cost with a minimum purchase being $35.00. So, for a $40.00 order, approximately $6.00 would be added for deliveryand  service fees and for a tip. I compare it to giving a 15% tip when eating at a restaurant. If you do try Instacart, your first order's delivery cost is free if you ask, but you still have to pay the service fee and tip which usually amounts to 10% of your purchase total.
If you call Instacart's senior access line, it is presented as only for seniors, but you can tell them that you are blind and that you are unable to use their website because it is inaccessible to blind people using programs like Jaws. It is possible that Instacart's iPhone app might be accessible, but you don't need to be struggling with that at this time while you are so tired and your vision is more blurred than usual. 
Target has free delivery on purchases of $35.00 or more. .  They have groceries and many other necessities. You can order on-line or by calling 800-591-3869. 
       I hope this helps. 
Cheryl

Good morning! I hope you are all doing well! I am doing the best I can. Pretty wiped out. However, I am in need of a few items, and I don’t have family nearby who can help. Do any of you like certain grocery delivery services? If so, are there coupons/other ways to get around the insane fees that they charge? I wasn’t sure if there were certain discounts for being disabled? If so, please let me know! Have a blessed day!

Sadie M. McFarland
