I think they pulled out of Texas altogether, as we lost them in Dallas as well. There are services who will shop for you, but around here they're very expensive, and the main one has a limit on how much they'll get in a single load, making their service charge too high for use unless you have a pump handle in your house that pumps out cash every time you use it. That said, Aldi will, if you arrange it with them, shop for you. You fax them a list, and give them one day advance, and then they'll have everything waiting for you. This can reduce the time required for someone helping you shop, and it's an excellent way to at least shorten this task. I'm looking into other chains to find out if they will also help -- my immediate targets are Kroger, Albertson's, Target, and Wal-mart. (I'll probably also give Sprouts and the natural grocery chain often referred to as "Whole Paycheck" a try as well)

Re: SHOPPING FOR GROCERIES ON Amazon Have you tried Pea Pod for groceries. Unfortunately, they are not in every market. Visit Peapod.com. You can check on line by entering your zip code to see if they are in your area. If they are available in your area, they are an easy and great way to shop. I used them all the time until they pulled out of Houston. Tim and Cheryl use them in Boston. They charge a small fee and 1 or 2 percent of your order total. All in all, on an order of about 250 dollars, the fee was under 10 dollars. That is well worth it to me not to have to go to the store. If you get something you are not happy with like produce, they will take it back at the time of delivery. they even will help put things away...or at least they did here when I used to use hem.
