Hi Everyone,

I'd just like to thank everyone who gave me such good advice on 'footwear' due to your help hubby and I are now the proud owners of some crocs each - which I have to say are lovely!

We fly in 4 weeks :banana: and are due to land at 6pm, I figured by the time we get to the Villa which is around 30 mins away it could be nearer 9pm or later?? My dilemma is what to do about grocery shopping as by that time we'll all be feeling more than ready for bed (even if we can't go to sleep straight away with the excitement!) so I really don't fancy going to the villa then back out shopping, but we will need some supplies for the morning so we can eat as I know we'll all be peckish!

There may be a little store on the complex, we're staying at Solana (if you have any bad reviews please don't tell me I'd rather not know at this late stage!) but I'm not sure on the shop yet just awaiting the owner to let me know.

Has anybody used the grocery store deliveries when they have been there - are they any good? Do they deliver if your not in (I mean you can't guarantee what time you'll be there can you??

Any advice as always greatly received xx

Hiya Paula

You'll find a lot of us on the boards use www.gardengrocer.com

We have used them 3 times now and I must admit they are "spot on".

Couple of points to note however, they will charge your card as soon as you place your order not on the day of delivery, and if you are requiring alcohol you must email them your request as it is not readily available on their website.

We have never stayed off site so can only give you my experience of how Disney operate when receiving your grocery delivery, but in the past our groceries have always been delivered before we have checked in and Disney have either held our goods at bell services or, like our last visit, they had unpacked it all and even put the refrigerated items in the fridge:thumbsup2

You get the option of 2 hour windows to receive your delivery which you can either chose to be before or after your due to check in.

Also if there is anything that you need that you cant find on their website, you can simply send them an email over and they will do their best to find either an alternative or get the item itself for you.

Any further questions please ask away:)
 
Thanks that's a big help - I think I'll email the owner and ask what would happen regarding the delivery should we not be there and I may even take a gamble depending on the mood I'm in and book a slot!!

Thanks again xx
 
We went a few weeks ago and used WeGoShop. Here's the link to the Orlando based franchise.

Our flight got in late and past the times stated on the webpage as operation hours. However, I emailed Amy, the owner, and she was great to work with and arranged to do our delivery later. We had good success using her service.
 

There is a publix not to far from solana, you will go past one on your way to the villa, you can just pick up the essentials.
