Comment on Grocery Delivery Service Instacart (YC S12) Raises $44Mparent

Comments

My reason is simple. I use Instacart frequently. When I first evaluated Google Shopping Express, it didn't seem possible to buy basic perishables such as milk and orange juice (and I don't mean the canned kind that sits on shelves at room temperature). That's pretty much a killer if I can't buy fresh milk and orange juice.

And then when they offer those products at lower prices?...lol

Not everyone is driven by price. Sometimes convenience trumps price. I use the delivery services so I don't have to waste an hour at Staples to buy one item.
