I have been buying from Walmart on line. Then I can compare their prices to the local grocery stores and make selections. The boxes are delivered right to the door for free. Green beans have been hard to buy lately. They keep running out. Also, asparagus cans are too soft to ship well.

“I have been buying from Walmart on line”. “The boxes are delivered right to the door for free”.

Sounds like a good idea. I try to do all my grocery shopping in a one day per week trip around the metroplex to conserve gas. I try to buy everything I need so that I will avoid unnecessary trips later for a few items. It costs me about 4 -8 bucks in gas and several hours to make the rounds to about 3 - 5 stores to buy the specials and lowest priced items. I’m retired and on a fixed income so I’m thinking I may soon have to schedule my shopping trip every two weeks.

“Green beans have been hard to buy lately”.

I garden and can some of my produce. I have about a two year supply of green beans and tomatoes from prior years.
