ntrprnr 0 #1 January 15, 2007 Fresh Direct. Wonderful wonderful. Kozmo and UrbanFetch finally done right. (Although those rocked in their own ways, too.) I do love it so. BEST part is the "Repeat Order" function. Find one order that works, and you're done in 10 seconds. Plus, delivery is only $4.95._______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

AggieDave 6 #6 January 16, 2007 Quote Hey, FYI Dave, it doesn't revolve around Texas either. According to the national media, TX doesn't matter. Even though we're having severe ice storms in over 1/2 the state, the north east is getting the majority of the coverage and TX is getting metioned occasionally with the rest of the nation that is having the same problem. I know that the world doesn't revolve around TX, even though its a great state, former country, and has an overall huge impact on the US economy. However, I'm not concieded enough to think that the world revolves around my city (NYC).--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

AggieDave 6 #10 January 16, 2007 QuoteEven though you put the smiley face, that was still a snotty thing to write. Its about the company that started it. Instead of putting "serving the greater NYC area" it has a "put in your zip-code" data box. So you put the zip code in the box and it goes "sorry, you can't get served by us, you don't live in the center of the universe, NYC."--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

DougH 270 #11 January 16, 2007 The man has a point. I threw my zip code in, no service. My next thought was, ok so why don't you assholes tell me where you ARE providing service.

aprilcat 0 #12 January 16, 2007 I don't use it, though someone on my floor does. I see the huge truck outside every now & then and after there are the empty boxes in the compactor. I LOVE to shop for my own food. There's always something extra (hey!! THAT tomato looks a lot better than this one! I think I'll make some chili!) Carrying groceries is not a problem. Here everyone has a grocery/laundry cart that you just pull when you need to (later for parking lots and getting tickets). But what do you do when you use a company like Fresh Direct and you forget that ONE thing you need? You have to go to the supermarket and wander the aisles....~~April Camelot II, the Electric Boogaloo! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't let anyone give you shit over this, almost everyone I know up here in WNY thinks NYC should be a differant state so we don't get lumped in with them.

FlyingJ 0 #14 January 16, 2007 I remember waiting anxiously as they slowly moved further and further uptown (I lived in Washington Heights). SO excited when I could finally get a delivery up there. Only problem was that I'm not very good at knowing what I need in advance. I'm more of a grab in on the way home kind of person. Of course, shortly after they started serving my area Whole Foods at Columbus Circle opened. I actually hate that store, but because we had a couple new concert halls going into the building they gave us some "hey new neighbor" gift cards that I made use of for some time.Killing threads since 2004.
