Really, who buys food off of amazon, especially pasta-roni?

And why is it in the gourmet section?

it's not laziness, some foods just isn't avaliable in some countries. For example, Spicy Cheetos are only sold in Eastern America, it is nearly impossible to find them in Canada or Western parts of the US. Ordering online is a way to get these foods to other countries...

I used to do my shopping on there, at uni with no car and can't get to a supermarket. You order online, pick a delivery slot (2 hour window) and it'll turn up, if they get it wrong, you just call up and they'll refund you the difference no questions asked.

Great service. In the US, Vons and Albertsons have online shopping, unfortunately is not available in my zip code
I've been waiting to use this service because I don't like grocery shopping and it would make my life easier. It sounds so convenient, they keep one's grocery list and with a few clicks I could get the same items delivered every week or add other things if I want to.
My husband doesn't want to use this service because he must choose every item carefuly, but I bet if I shop this way he wouldn't even notice.

Am I lazy for wanting to buy groceries online? yea, I guess, a little. Who cares!
I rather think of it as productive time management so I can have extra time to do the things I enjoy doing.

I have a friend in the States that buys jerky off amazon - raves about it - personally I'll reframe from getting my food through the post!

My parents have ordered the weekly shopping online before and have it delivered. It's helpful when they are both at work and really busy and saves them having to go to the shops during a busy time to pick things up. Personally I'd rather have it delivered - maybe it's laziness - but I don't like shopping. I get annoyed as soon as I walk into these shops and get frustrated with all the people who are walking around and getting in the way, especially those people that let their kids run around the shop like it's a playground. Online lets me get the shopping and not have to get really annoyed so I like it.
