The governor of Illinois was recently asked a specific question during a press conference regarding whether non-essential businesses were allowed to operate for web or phone orders with pickup options. He stated clearly that this is not permitted under the current stay-at-home order (but it will be permitted under the new order starting May 1).
There's enough confusion around these orders though that I believe some non-essential businesses were operating for curbside pickup anyway.
There's also a drive-in movie theater trying to open up around here but the government is saying no. Decisions like that just anger people because they don't seem to be based on common sense. The risk there is so low that the government would gain a bit of goodwill if they just said "fine, open it up and make sure to follow all guidelines".
