Ice Cream Delivery

Fenton's Ice Cream

I may be way behind the game on this one, but KC and I just tried Instacart for the first time the other night — have you guys heard of it?  I had a craving for ice cream (how cliché, right?) and KC was a little under the weather and so wasn’t willing to run off to the store to fulfill my every wish and need, unfortunately.  (To be fair, he basically did this every night during the first trimester when I felt like complete garbage and couldn’t pin down what I wanted to or could eat until about 15 minutes before I actually ate it.)

I, being tired (and a little bit lazy), did not feel like putting on real clothes, getting in the car, and braving the crowd at Safeway just in the name of Ben and Jerry, so I checked out Instacart.  Instacart delivers groceries to your door from a number of locations (near us they go to Safeway, Whole Foods, Berkeley Bowl and Costco) and offers free delivery on your first order over $10.  Plus I found a coupon for $10 off our order — way too good to pass up!  We ordered a random assortment of treats — Its-Its, 2 pints of ice cream, and a pack of tortillas (for dinner later this week) — and got the update from Instacart that our order would be at our door within 2 hours.

By the time we finished watching Downton Abbey, an adorable girl showed up on our doorstep with our bag of goodies — without us ever having to leave the house.

Um, it was kind of magic.

So, in the event that you’re super busy (or just lazy like me), you should check out Instacart.  And as if you needed more incentive, here’s a code for $10 off (just because I like you): click here for coupon code. (Code is good for the first 5 users.)

Happy shopping!
