Groceries sent to Villas?

[elizflynn]

Can someone help. I want to send some snacks and waters to my villa before I arrive, how do I go about this?

gardengrocer.com. I used them and they are delivering tomorrow. Bell services will keep things in fridge freezer until we arrive.

There is also wegoshop which many recommend, and you can also go through the member website & have groceries delivered right from the resort store. It's a bit expensive, but I've heard a lot of people say the items were already put away before they arrived at their villa. It might be worth it if you only want a few items.

We have used wegoshop.com 5 times and we will be using them on our upcoming trip. I recommend them highly.
I order exactly what I want. We arrange a 1/2 hour window for delivery and they have always been right on time.
Good Luck

I used garden grocer twice and we were quite pleased. Even were able to get beer. Just have to request it separately in their notes.

Another plug for gardengrocer.com

They even called my cell to confirm the groceries were delieverd and waiting w/bell services. Because our luggage was lost and we got to the resort late, it was all kept in fridge/freezer at the resort. Everything was cold/frozen/fresh! Will definitely use again. Saves alot of time.

Now only if the airline could do the same...

One more vote for garden grocer. Used them a few times and have never had a problem.

Do the Grocery Delivery groups bring the groceries directly to your room (assuming you are there?) If not, feels like I'd pay a premium in tipping both the grocery delivery company and bell services. Usually when we arrive I end up doing one big grocery trip.....sometimes seams like those grocery stores end up putting only 1-2 items in those plastic bags. For a big haul, I end up tripping bell services $20......if I paid a dollar for every little bag, it'd probably be more like $40. Starts to feel out of control pretty quickly! Ideas?

Another vote for Gardengrocer dot com. We used them twice in the past and have another delivery scheduled for next week. Great website, prices are reasonable...never a problem. When you are a Diet Pepsi addict such as myself who will go into withdrawal at the Coke-only land of WDW, it is great to have this type of service available.

The first time our delivery was waiting for us at bell services and the second time it was already in the room...they must have coordinated with bell services who were handling a luggage transfer. Not sure how they did it, but it was well worth it.

Good luck.

What is the recommended lead time on this? We arrive 3 weeks from Monday.

Well you COULD do what we do which is to just take a cab. It cost us $10 plus a couple dollars for a tip to go from SSR to Winn Dixie. We shopped & we bought what was on sale, hot items, beer & wine, etc. & then called when we were finished. We had to carry the bags ourselves to our villa, but I'm a control freak & I prefer to do my own shopping.

We have used wegoshop and have been extremely pleased. Order was perfect. We arrvied in the evening so we coordinated for a drop off when we were getting to the room. Had cold items in cooler. My brother used as well and have similar good luck.

WE GO SHOP!! I didn't think of this when I used them last trip, but I bet you could arrange for room delivery with them if you were going to be in the villa!! Then you don't worry with bell services. Has anyone ever tried this?

I'm glad I saw this thread. I had the idea of doing the cab from the airport with a grocery stop, but we can take the ME, save the $65 and have exactly what we want delivered to the room! Thanks all!
