Can I buy my groceries online? I've heard of so many grocery store encounters with right-

4. I fortunately live in the blue speck of Arizona that is Sedona

but I buy all my pet supplies, almond milk, paper products on line and much more on Amazon prime. ($79 per year). I use the subscription service for further discount.

12. I love Sedona...still have some good friends still there..

5. Yes, you can.

Many grocery stores now run delivery services such as Peapod. Ironically these services create jobs...someone has to take the list you submit, product select your items, for loss-prevention reasons the product selection must be checked out by a second human being (no automated or self-checkout) and they need to hire a driver. Typically, there's a delivery charge but often that's waived if you exceed a certain amount of inventory, I think it's $80 for Peapod.

Tip your driver, often they're also your product selector.

the quality of produce and meats that I would look for on the shelf.

7. I'm sure you can.

I haven't had many encounters in grocery stores with them. I pretty much get what I need and get out.

8. I live in a red area of North Georgia,

and I have never had any encounters with right-wingers at the grocery. Everyone I meet is very polite and no one discusses politics.

9. Safeway in my area

I've used it. No complaints except the selection isn't as good as at a store.

[North Carolina Knigh]

10. Why

Do you let people bother you. I could care less what people think of me. Besides what makes politics come up in a grocery store. Or anywhere for that matter?

[raccoon]

13. I don't know, but from DU it would seem that there are many combative right-wingers at

grocery stores and filling stations, waiting to verbally assault anyone who doesn't think exactly as they do.

[North Carolina Knigh]

15. I'm sure there is

But to let one of them bother you is a waste of your time. Screw them, you're allowed to have your opinions and beliefs.

[RebelOne]

19. Agreed. In fact, why would I want to buy groceries online,

when I have two supermarkets within a 5-minute drive?

[Kaleva]

11. One can shop online at Walmart. Order at least $48 worth and the shipping is free.

You can't get certain items like fresh and frozen foods though.

[malthaussen]

14. I imagine it depends on where you live.

I buy my groceries online quite frequently, as the local supermarket has a web site to do just that.

16. What if the delivery person is a wingnut?

You could start a whole new genre!

22. I, for one, don't mind the encounters.

I never miss an opportunity to educate or, failing that, at least let them know that not everyone has swallowed the kool-aid.
