Most of us hate going to the grocery store. Fighting for parking, dealing with the crowds, dodging shopping carts, waiting in long lines at checkout—they're all annoying and make us want to avoid the supermarket altogether. Plus, grocery stores are full of money-sucking pitfalls like endcaps and deceptive pricing. Thankfully, we live in the future, and we can have groceries brought to us instead of having to go get them.

Shopping for groceries online likely won't replace of your trips to the grocery store, and if you're a food lover or have an eye for quality and like to pick your products carefully and try new things, it shouldn't. What it can do however is help you spend only the money you have to on the things that are essential, help you stick to a budget and plan your meals, and free you up to actually enjoy your food shopping tips, as opposed to dreading them.
