They do give you a two hour window for delivery.

6:21 am

sukee

I was hoping they would have been here by now so I can have breakfast :)

6:22 am

MollyL

We also have a grocery chain that does "valet shopping". You call ahead, place your order and you can drive up to the front of the store and they load it all in your car.
