Here is how it works. You go to the grocery store. You pick up your
groceries. You take them to the checkout counter. You ask for delivery.
Instead of bagging your groceries, they get boxed and they put a slip on
the box with your address, phone number, etc. You go home without your
groceries. The supermarket delivers your groceries.

With the frozen stuff melted, the vegetables wilted, several things
broken and at a time convenient to them, not you.

Somerfield keep teh stuff frozen or chilled, as appropriate. And I've
never had any veg wilt in the few hours it takes to get them home on a
same day delivery.
