Everyone has their favorite delivery service for all those things you don't want to pack for your trip. There is Amazon Pantry, Green Grocer, and etc. Which is your favorite and what tips can you give on ordering. (I also understand that Disney adds a $5.00 handling fee per box and/or bag to deliver to your room.)

Do you do delivery because you are staying in a villa???

I have never had things delivered as I have never stayed in a cabin or at a villa but I read a lot about delivery services so I was just wondering. By the way, I really like your signature quote from Pooh.

Doc, we are staying just in a room next year. We are looking into delivering water and some groceries that we just don't want to pack. Usually, I pack everything and just wanted to know, with the delivery fee, if it is still worth it.

lol...Sounds like my mom. I would tease for years that every time we went on a trip she would pack the kitchen sink if she could. I remember go to WDW with a box full of snacks and a box full of fruit and drinks.

With Garden Grocer they have discounts for early orders. I haven't been charged 5$ fee yet. Last time I used them was May. I'll use them again in March. I don't pack anything but 4 days clothes. Extra shoes. That's about it.

Yep, I have to know where that thing is when we leave home.

I wondered cuz the change happened the first of Sept.....so maybe Garden Grocer won't char you but Disney will $5 a bag or box delivered.....but why do that....you will be living here by then....pack up the cooler

We have used Garden Grocer twice and both were positive experiences. Ordered early for the discount. Decent selection and food was fresh. Quick breakfast foods and snacks for poolside so we could save to splurge on snacks in the parks! Waiting to hear about how the $5 fee works before using GG again. Thought it was just if you were mailing packages ahead.

Any time anything is delivered to Disney for you upon check in....so it will count Amazon Prime, Garden Grocer, or any other delivery service item
