A Kroger in Nashville has started "Click List" which is their online grocery shopping.
Score, right? You go online, add anything and everything you need to your list. You schedule your pickup and they give you a rough price of every item on your list.
Pros:
You can schedule pickup for a time that is convenient for you.
We can't shop hungry and end up with five packs of Oreos.
We don't waste money on last minute "Oh I need that because I saw it" things.
You can add forgotten items up until midnight of the night before you pickup.
When you get there, you press the button like at Sonic, tell them your name, and they ask if you have paper coupons and how you're paying. They bring your groceries and the iPad for you to pay.
After comparing the prices, I was charged about $5 over what was quoted on the printout you get after you finalize your cart. I was given an organic item which is about $1 more per pound, I was given a different weight, different lean percentage meat which was more than $1 extra. All in all, it was fun, but I probably won't be doing it again. I love our Kroger store and really enjoy grocery shopping.

SO neat!!!! Our Kroger just started this little self scanner thing (and no, I don't mean the self checkout!)...where you can take a scanner around the store with you, bring your own bags, and you know your bill as you add things to your cart. It looks awesome but I've been so intimidated by it I haven't given it a try! You might've inspired me to try, though! ;) I like the idea of ordering groceries online! Sometimes I really enjoy taking my time at the store, but that's the exact reason we usually spend a little too much!
