You just drive into a covered parking row, a worker comes out with your order and transfers everything to your bags or containers. You don't even have to get out of your car. Target just recently started something similar.

It's so convenient for me as a senior with health problems. I like the convenience of shopping from home, taking my time, and no more shopping trips that wasted half the day.

service. It's so convenient, I'm sure she will appreciate how easy it is. Tell her the quality of perishables is at least as good as the things I would select myself, so the workers doing the shopping are as choosy as I am. Wal-Mart does do some substituting if they are out of stock, but you can refuse their pick if you don't like it.
