It’s well known that many families and individuals don’t feel they have time to shop for and prepare wholesome meals. Others don’t like the not so green-focused shopping experience found in major grocery stores. It’s also well known that people tend to spend a lot of time in front of their computer screens. Why not use some of this time to grocery shop? Getting organic food delivered right to your door will benefit your pocket book in these (and other) ways:
-Contrary to popular belief, shopping through organic home delivery can save you money. How? Most delivery services have online ordering; your orders must be planned, which means no spontaneous shopping for extra cookies or chocolate!
-Most major Western cities and suburbs lack central, accessible markets. People have to drive or take the bus to shopping malls where most major grocery stores are located. Getting your food delivered has the benefits of saving you the headache and saving you the gas or transporation money. Not only that, one delivery van driving around is far more Eco-friendly than 20 cars.
-You’ll also find you’ll waste less food - not only is organic food often a lot more flavourful, you may find that because you paid slightly more for it, you won’t let it go mushy in the bottom of the fruit drawer.
-There are also some ways using an organic food delivery service can cost less in non-monetary terms. Think of the time saved food shopping as quality time with your kids- you now can take your kids to the park or read them a book.
-Finally, consider the long term costs of not eating the best way for you and your kids in terms of longevity, quality of life, doctor’s bills and prescription drugs. Many organic food delivery services also carry organic meat, dairy and bakery products – you don’t have to go out of your way to access the best, most healthful products for all of you.
