Curbside Pickup And Delivery Fee Waivers
Carrying heavy bags of dog food, lifting cases of water, and navigating crowded aisles present genuine physical hazards as we age. Grocery stores recognize that older adults require alternative shopping methods and frequently offer financial incentives to use them.
Perk 6: Waived Curbside and Delivery Fees
Standard grocery delivery services often tack on picking fees, service charges, and delivery fees that quickly inflate your grocery bill by $15 to $20 per order. However, many stores waive these fees for seniors or for individuals utilizing SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits.
Speak directly with the store manager to see if they offer a senior waiver for curbside pickup. By taking advantage of this perk, store employees will do the heavy lifting—shopping your list, bagging your groceries, and loading them directly into your trunk—at absolutely no extra cost to you.
I don’t qualify for these specials because I am on disability and not Social security, witch I feel that is unfair to people that are on disability we can not work we don’t get SNAP nothing, we need help just as much as all the other people.
Great tips on saving at the Grocery Store! Thank you, Darlene
