Is this true? Peapod was acquired by Royal Ahold in 2001 and thus cancelled its contracts with all other grocery stores that were not Royal Ahold-owned. http:/

- dtauzell 12y agoPeapod delivers here in Milwaukee. I haven't used it much but I just noticed that they now have a "pickup" option in some cities where you drive up and they load you your vehicle. I might actually use the service more if they offer that as my biggest problem is that I usually go shopping only when I'm totally out of something I really need. If I planned ahead better I would use it more.

- freshyill 12y agoIn DC they might start doing a thing where they'll have lockers at Metro stations, so you can pick up your groceries on the way home. There was a Washington Post article from just a few days ago. http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/trafficandcommuting/too-busy-to-shop-for-groceries-pick-them-up-at-your-metro-station/2014/12/03/b4e0ac3c-7b07-11e4-9a27-6fdbc612bff8_story.html http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/trafficandcommuting/too-... My Giant store has the Peapod curbside pickup although I've never used it or Peapod in general.
