Online grocery shopping. Don’t know if you have that option where you live, but man, oh, man, is it ever a gamechanger. I despise grocery shopping, it is the singlemost stressful experience of modern daily living. For large grocery trips, it is so much easier than going in person. You just order everything online - when the order is ready, you drive to the store, park, let them know you’ve arrived, then they bring out your order and load it into your car and off you go. No stress, no crowds, no overstimulation by all those products and bright lights and displays.

Yeah, no. lol

Germany, where I live, isn't anywhere near as advanced as, for example, the US.
And when you add to that living in the countryside, like me - hell, I can't even get randomly every fast food delivery service coming to my village, let alone grocery deliveries You would be surprised how many online services that are daily standard in other countries are still lacking over here. Something you don't know unless you live here

With that said, I'm glad it's working for You since you despise grocery shopping!
For me it's the opposite - actually I love grocery shopping! It's just today that ended up being stressful for various reasons

I get it. I live in a rural area, too, in Canada - groceries are a half-hour away and there's no fast food delivery where I live.

Glad you love grocery shopping! Here, we have a lot of the 'big-box' stores where everything is under one roof - they are very large, overwhelming places for someone who is sensitive, hence my dislike of them. If I had my way, I'd happily shop at a corner Ma-and-Pa type store, but those are sadly disappearing.

I hope your day ends up being less stressful.

Ahhh, that makes sense indeed. My grocery store is just a "regular" grocery store, thankfully. There are a couple more things inside the same building, but you're not forced to have any contact with them, you can just walk past

I'll bet Canada is beautiful, though! Have you lived there all your life?
