Who would you choose????

We are highly considering having some groceries delivered the day we arrive. We have never done this before and I could use some advice.

We are staying in Disney for 5 nights prior to our cruise. I was thinking about getting 1 case of water and 2 cases of powerade. Breakfast items and maybe some small snacks to take with us into the parks, ie pretzels, goldfish, etc.

My questions are who to use and with the delivery prices do you think it is worth it? I think it probably is considering a powerade in the parks is $2.50. We will probably buy the mugs too for when we are at the resort, considering how close we are to the main ceremonial house.

Any suggestions, comments, all welcome!

Thanks! 25 days and counting!

We used Garden Grocer when we were there last Sept. We thought they were great!! Just go to their website and order what you'd like. They'll deliver for free for any order over $200.00, or charge just $12.00 for anything under that amount. I'd use them again!:thumbsup:

We too are considering using Garden Grocer. How late do they deliver? Do they deliver directly to your room, or do they drop off at Guest Services? We won't have time to make our 1/2 hour stop with Quicksilver so that we can make an ADR, but with 3 little ones, I want to make sure I can get the groceries as soon as possible.

Garden Grocer charges $12 for delivery with a $40 minimum. We have used them in the past and have also booked them for our Aug 10th delivery!! We love them. It is well worth it for ease and convenience.

You set up the delivery for anytime, and they will deliver to your bell services folks and BS will hold your items (plus refrigables) until you request their delivery to your room. I love GG!!

I think we will definitely be trying them out for our October trip - thanks for the info!

How far in advance should you order from Garden Grocer?

[crazypoohbear]

If you are using Garden grocer book your order as soon as you can because sometimes during the busy season they do book up and you will not get a delivery the day you want it.
I used them before and was pleased with the service. FYI they will also deliver alcohol, beer and wine :beer::marg:

I was just on their website and do not see any alcohol, beer or wine prices, which we would definitely want to order. Do you have to call them directly to order those, or did I miss it on the website?

garden grocer is awesome! we usually order about 2 months before our trip b/c they can get booked on certain days - the ETOH im not sure about i have never looked for it on their website - we got beer at our resort store but its worth calling about since you will pay $$$ at the resort

We put our order in a couple days ago. I think this will be a great $$ saver overall.

We ordered water and powerade, breakfast items, and a couple snack items.

We picked delivery day for the morning we arrive. I am hoping we arrive before them since we will be spending the night at the MCO airport Hyatt, hopefully we get a early morning jump on the day!

Only 19 more days :cloud9:!!!!

where do you pick it up at?

where do you pick it up at?

They deliver it to your resort - even to your room if you are available. If you're not available, they'll deliver it to guest services (who will refrigerate any necessary items for you) and guest services will then deliver it to your room once you return.
