Why I love doing the food shop online

We first did the food shop with asda online when we had a very young baby and the car was off the road. The first time was a disaster. We choose an 8 hour slot so we waited in all day for the shopping to be delivered and then it turned up late!
Then a few months later we gave it another go all because asda had a offer that you pay £15 and for 3 months you can have any slot at any time or day for free as long as you spend £40 or more. Well as a family of 3 at the time plus two pets it made sense. I could book an early morning slot and get it over and done with. No more dragging the little one around the supermarket early on a Saturday morning to avoid the crowds and no more supermarket tantrums! It's great, I can do the order a week or more in advance and just adjust it up until 11:00pm the night before the delivery is due. Ok so I miss not being able to pick out my own fruit/veg and there have been a few items missing on occasion but these things are easily sorted.
Now being on maternity leave and having two kids and a couple of pets and only a Corsa it makes even more sense to get it delivered. I usually choose a Friday morning slot 8am-10am which suits us just fine because by then the kids have been up for a couple of hours already and it leaves the day free for other activities.
