Grocery delivery is awesome for the elderly, handicapped, people with little time, offices, small caterers. When I did Weight Watchers, I started using grocery delivery to make sure I only purchased items on my plan, and I've been using delivery ever since.

Companies do give out samples. They are looking to put their products in potential consumers' hands. They wouldn't do it if it didn't work one of the place that always worked is "123 Get Samples" search online
