I'm not going to lie, ordering groceries from home, not having to lug children around a store, and being able to .. um.. get our drink on, is really really exciting.
Here's the rundown of how our third order with Amazon Fresh went.
Ordering was smooth sailing. We did find out that you need to double check your recently order items because prices do jump up. Cereal that we ordered before was now a whole dollar more expensive and we found a cheaper option just searching for more cereal. So keep that in mind. While it may seem easy just to click that reorder button, sometimes it won't be as cost effective.
We also had a problem when or order came this time. The quality of our lettuce was subpar and our green onions (scallions? -- call them what you want...) we're quite sad. One of our loaves of bread also got slightly smushed in transit. I'm sure Amazon would have refunded us for these items, but we just used half the head of lettuce and threw out the bad part and made the meals with these two items first since we knew they wouldn't last for the end of the week meals. We also got tomatoes on the vine instead of the roma tomatoes we ordered but this was a swap that was in our favor.
So here we are again. Here's a recap for those of you following along at home.
Order 1 - Missing items. Great customer service.
Order 2 - Perfect! Everything was great. No complaints here!
Order 3 - Quality issues. Womp.
So the more we keep doing this the more we may realize that it's just not worth it to Amazon Fresh our groceries (goodbye, online shopping with my trusty glass of white...) We still have two more shops on our free trial, so we'll finish it out and follow up with a conclusion.
