Do you do an online shop if you haven't got transport?

I shop online about once in 3-4 weeks for bulky items / basics. Once a week I take an old lady trolley to buy fruit and veg (which is most of our diet) from our local market, and a few extras things we can't manage without from the small local supermarket.

We do a bigger shop one day a week but mainly one of us shops a little each day, if we did not live and work as close to supermarkets we would have to internet shop

Use my old buggy no longer needed for child its brillant make its so much easier to get the shopping home and no sore arms from having to carry it all.

I used a big four-wheel shopping jeep back before I drove. The supermarket was about a ten minute walk away (everywhere I lived had to be near shops and public transport - this was in Melbourne suburbs, so not difficult).

Big online shop once a month or so for heavy non-perishables (tins, washing powder, nappies ect).

Weekly shop with a very glam trolly!

Regular top ups of bread and milk from a Tesco express.

I’ve never had a car so I don’t find it tricky.

What @Saffronn said. We’ve never had a car, take old lady trolley (now nearly 20 years old!) to medium
size supermarket and local market on a Saturday, do online orders once a month or less for tins / washing powder / loo paper / olive oil. Top ups from
local shops.

We just walk to the shops or market.
