Water Delivery to Resort

[lorieandalex]

If I purchase water delivery to get to our resort, is their a particular brand of water we can/can not deliver?

Also, if I order tonight will it be there for Tuesday?

Is Staples the preferred place to order from?

Thanks

There is also a grocery service that delivers to the resorts:
www.gardengrocer.com

Don't you have to spend a particular amount with garden grocer like $40 or $50. I know I had read somewhere on this board about people shipping a case of water?

Anyone else have any other info

THanks so much

 

[ryley26]

Most have a sevice charge that we've seen or a minimum. Wegoshop is another and even some of the local grocery chains have a service such as Publix .

Yes the minimum $$ for Garden Grocer is $50.00.

How about Staples anyone ever order from them??

I have ordered from Staples-2 years ago-and plan on doing the same this trip. April 9-17th.
I actually looked it up today though and can't figure out how to get free shipping. I know I did last time. Anyone know?

Since this is more of a Resorts question ... I'm gonna move this one over to the Resorts Board

Thanks,

I just asked about this recently. It looks like most people use Staples, but you only get free shipping now if you're a teacher. A better deal for me is going to be Costco - if you're a member then shipping is included in the price which is the same as Staples without shipping.

Yeah, Staples got wise to us. The downside of Costco, I think that's what we got last fall - was that they pick the brand. In Florida it's Zephyrhills - which is essentially bottled Florida tap water - as bottled water goes, it's not the best. Not much diffeent than getting one bottle and refilling it over and over again from fountains.

I use Staples. I prefer purified water for my kids when we travel. My ped advised me that by switching spring waters they each have various amounts of minerals and could possibly upset little ones tummies. We drink Poland Springs at home but it's hit or miss getting it in FL. We find Zephyrillis just undrinkable.

Staples ships Nestle Purified Water for us. I did it last Nov and plan to do it again in June. Regardless of the price, it's less than buying Dasani at the parks. I think I paid around $20 for the case shipped.

Price is not a concern when you think about the chance of having a sick kid on vacation.

Staples used to deliver for free and still will but according to its website "Delivery is free on all orders over $50, excluding custom products."

So if you needed water and a memory card or 2 that might be an option.

Staples ships free for $50 and over. I love the idea of ordering a memory card with the water.

I ordered twice from them last year with no problems. My water was waiting at the resort when I arrived, and they delivered it with my luggage. I belive Staples is next day delivery, but I added on an extra day just to be on the safe side. Even with the shipping it was still cheaper than buying water in the parks, and I prefer spring water over purified water.

Someone told me that they don't sell Poland Spring water in FL. I don't know if it's true or not. I didn't want to take the chance that they would ship me something else instead. I ordered Deer Park, and there was no problem at all with that.
