Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[Tom Lange]

Hi.  I just used the White & Yellow Pages app to look for supermarkets in your 
area and found a bunch of them, but I have no idea which ones are  chain 
stores, as I haven't been around Independence in ages. On a whim, I checked out 
Piggly Wiggly, which lets you order online, but the site says that it takes ten 
to fifteen days for an online order  to  be processed. You have a Costco in 
your area, but I don't think they deliver. Too bad, because Costco's got great 
stuff. Give them a call, perhaps they might have changed recently. Amazon, 
interestingly enough, has recently gotten into the grocery delivery business 
and may be worth checking out.  Maybe they contract with local markets so that 
you can get good locally-grown produce.  I remember when I lived near 
Independence and the local produce was hard to beat. And Kansas City steaks? 
Can't find anything that'll match 'em out here in Los Angeles, no way. But I'm 
beginning to ramble, so I'd better get out of here. Good luck.

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

Hi

I do apologize for any ambiguations. Indeed. We used to have a Safeway but it 
was renamed to I think Summerfields years ago. Anyway back on topic, all the UK 
leading supermarkets have their own apps and they are accessible for the most 
part, Morrisons and Ocado to be the best in terms of accessibility.

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[Lea W Langley]

Hi, thank you for the help. I just checked with Safeway and they do not deliver 
in Independence Missouri which is where I live. I am not trying to take up room 
on the list I just want to share what information I find out. Peapod is also 
not available in my area. God bless, Wren Langley also Insta cart is not 
available either. It's a shame, because these apps really seem like they would 
be great. If anything ever changes I will let you all know just in case this 
might work for someone else. Please keep the suggestions coming, because I will 
check them all. Thank you.

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[Tom Lange]

I've used the safeway.com web site for online grocery ordering for years now, 
and it's worked very well. Safeway used to have an "accessibility site", but it 
seems it's been merged with the main one, probably to eliminate the hassle of 
dual maintenance. In any case, the site is easy to use once you get the hang of 
it, and the Delivery app (which is related) works fine, too. It's a bit 
cumbersome for putting together really large orders, in my opinion. Fyi, the 
safeway.com web site and app are associated with Vons markets here in southern 
California, and I seem to recall recently reading that safeway.com may also be 
associated with Albertsons markets too, depending on your location.  If you 
want to inquire about this, call 877-505-4040. I've found the customer service 
folks at that number to be quite friendly and helpful; they should be able to 
answer any questions you may have. Good luck with it. Online grocery ordering 
is really handy, especially for those times when you need to do a major 
stock-up and don't want the hassle of trying to haul a couple of carts full of 
groceries in Uber or by cab.

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[Lea W Langley]

Hi all, I went on the Tesco webpage to see if I could find out if it is 
available in the United States. I didn't want to sign in because I didn't want 
the cookies being used. It said enter post or town  Code in the search box, but 
when I entered it it just sent me to another page. Can anyone help or have any 
suggestions please? Thank you. Also just to let you all know the Peapod Service 
is not available in my area.

I really do appreciate all of your helpful suggestions. I am checking them all 
out. Thank you again.
God bless, Wren Langley

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

['Carol Pearson' via VIPhone]

Hi,

Yes, Tesco is quite useable and good price. Ocado is a little more 
expensive but I do like their app very much.


I tend to search for most of the items I want, whichever app I'm using 
and find this most efficient, apart from using my Favourites on occasions.


Oh, the checking out is a bit of a pain with Ocado in that you get lots 
of offers coming at you, but you can bypass these by going to the 
bottoms of screens till you reach the final checkout, so it's not too 
bad and you can opt to use a four figurfe code instead of your password 
if you wish.


If money is tight or important, I'd start with Tesco myself.

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[christopher hallsworth]

Hi

I use the Tesco and Asda grocery apps to do my shopping. I also have the 
Morrisons and Ocado apps but only use these for browsing now since I find Tesco 
and Asda to be reasonably priced and offer a good delivery service. Although I 
get help at home, I do put most or all of my shopping away. I just know by both 
feeling and memory recall what item(s) I have ordered. Since you don’t have any 
home help, using a barcode scanner app sounds a good idea to identify tins,

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

I use Kingsoopers.  My meat and parishables are always excellent 
quality.  I know what I hav e ordered, so don't have too much problem.  
However, if I find the unrecognized can, I will use cam find or digit-eyes.

I love the service and cannot say enough good about it.

If you have them delivered ask the delivery person to help you know what is 
what. I use the Kingsoopers app. It has a great shopping list feature.

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[Robin Frost]

Hi,
I find the app for PeaPod Delivers to be very user friendly in conjunction 
with VoiceOver as is their web site.  though they're affiliated with Giant 
Super markets in some states note they are a national service which partners 
with different markets in the areas they serve. On their site they have a 
search wherein you can put your zip code to see if they service your area.

I have ordered from them, from Fresh Direct and from
www.netgrocer.com
which is affiliated with Shoprite markets.
All are quite usable in my opinion.
I haven't anyone here to help me identify things but I too have an ID mate 
and I can count on one hand the canned or bottled goods it hasn't been able 
to identify for me.
As for fresh perishables on rare occasions I'll get something that isn't to 
my liking and if it's bad enough I merely call and get a credit for the item 
in question but over-all they do rather well.
Another helpful feature PeaPod at least offers are text and email 
notifications alerting you that within your delivery window your delivery is 
next as well as letting you know your driver has arrived.

It's quite a handy feature for making one feel more secure.

I hope that helps.
Robin

The Peapod app is quite usable on the iPhone. It is the app for Giant

I use the Schwans App to order frozen food. It has a way to go as far as 
accessibility, but it is doable.

Re: Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[Wayne Merritt]

This would be a good use of the TapTapSee app, for recognizing those
cans or boxes of items. A good app for grocery delivery would be
Instacart, which is not available in all points of the US. I've found
that the prices on Instacart are a little higher than what you might
find in the grocery store. It is an option though, and it supports
Apple Pay if you have a newer iOS device with Touch ID capabilities.

Good luck,
Wayne

Does anyone use iPhone apps for grocery shopping and grocery delivery

[Lea W Langley]

Hi all, I am thinking of starting to have my groceries delivered. I have some 
questions though. I am totally blind and live by myself. I don't have a home 
care provider or anyone that comes in to do those things. I do have people who 
bring me grocery shopping, but I know that there are grocery delivery services 
and I thought about trying them. Here are my questions: If you do have 
groceries delivered, how do you know which items are which? If anyone has 
ordered fresh foods such as vegetables are they of good quality when you get 
them? How do you know what canned goods are  what? I have triedany of the Apps 
for reading cans and packages. I also have an I D mate quest, but sometimes the 
items cannot be found either in the apps are on the quest. That is why I was 
asking how you know what is what. Any ideas opinions suggestions etc. would be 
greatly appreciated. Thank you all very much, and God bless, Wren Langley
