Grocery store subscriptions for "free" shipping. Do you guys use them? (lemmy.ca)

Walmart (Canada) has started offering subscriptions for "free" shipping for under $10 a month. The cost of gas to go there a few times a month would be more than the subscription fee.

Since I normally bike to get groceries, this isn't really a factor, but the idea of getting groceries shipped over the winter seems like a nice idea.

Does anyone here use these grocery store shipping subscriptions? Is it worth strategically getting it for a few months out of the year?

Is that also for fresh produce like... apples, tomatoes, meat p.e.? These I'd really like to select myself. Otherwise they'd have to have a good refund policy.

That's my biggest concern, even with pick-up orders. But, they do have a good return policy and will refund you for stuff that isn't to your satisfaction. Is it worth the hassle if it happens with each deliver? That's another story!
