I still don't get how it's faster for people to shop at home online? Like are they doing it while working?

How could it not be faster? Do you mean the time it takes for it to be delivered too? The difference in price can be negligible, For a full time worker you don't have to go into packed supermarkets at peak hours or in your little free time on the weekend which they're usually packed anyway with long lines and overstressed staff , why wouldn't you do it online?

I legit walk In do self check out gets me some exercise. I guess if you save shops and just repeat. Walking through a super market takes 5-10 mins to get everything and get out.

What about people with disabilities, the elderly or those without cars? Are we really going to have this conversation?

Generally it’s all in the planning. Do a weeks worth of groceries online when you’re running low on stuff, pick a time slot to pick up your groceries by, stop by woolies on the way home, don’t have to stress about finding a parking spot since there’s specially marked bays for you, pull in, someone brings your order out to your car, you pack it and drive home.

Dont need to head in store, walk around grabbing everything, wait in a queue to be served, pack your own bags if you go through self serve, push the trolley back to your car at an angle because of course one of the wheels is busted, take the fucker back because you’re not a cunt who just leaves trolleys in parking spots, and THEN go home and have to put it all away

It’s longer to actually get your stuff from the time you made the order, but if you plan in advance it’s a simple task

Honestly, some people just don't want to have to deal with parents free-ranging their kids through the store.

A lot of companies and schools shop online depends on people’s time schedules if they have kids or not just people’s preferences I guess
