While it is true that other delivery services offer a lower delivery fee, in many cases they raise the price of items when you order online.
In addition to this, many specials and sales (such as “manager specials” or “buy 2 items and get the 3rd free”) are only available in-store.
With Dedicated Shopper, we do not raise the prices of items, and by sending us to the store, you still get to take advantage of these in-store specials and deals.
We pass the savings on to you, and you get a copy of the receipt so that you can be sure that you are not being charged more than we paid for the groceries!
To recap: with Dedicated Shopper, there are no hidden fees – you are only paying for the in-store grocery price, plus the delivery fee.
Other delivery services may claim to have a lower delivery fee, but your overall bill is generally higher.
