I think that this is a great idea. Did you know that new HEB will also have a curbside pickup? Just thought you would want to know. Best of luck!! 4951

Posting this without being a sponser is against the rules but i dont care..
 
I do question the lifetime membership thing..300 people..$250 each..basically you are asking them to invest $75,000 startup money in a business you have no idea if it will succeed or not. Its a decent premise but id rather have wine delivery. 4951

You are right. We don't know if it will succeed. That's why the $250 is refundable if it doesn't work out. There's a bit more to it of course. This investment would cover our initial inventory and keeps us accountable to our customers.

Covered pickup is getting popular up in the north where the winters are worse. We visited my uncle in Minnesota and their grocery, Wegman's or another one had a covered area. You get a ticket when you pay and your groceries are all put in grey bins, you go get your car and pull up and show your number and they load them, under a bit covered roof. Great idea in the rain or snow. 4951

I don`t see the purpose of paying for a membership just to be able to purchase items from a business. This is why we don`t shop at the warehouse clubs. I agree with BooBear, it sounds like you are asking your customers for financial support. I hope that you have the capital and a good financial backing to compete with the big boys. It is going to be very difficult and a very expensive start up. Good luck I hope everything work out. 4951

@PuzzlegeekOk, I'm game for this. Yes, this is in violation since your not a sponsor. How do I know? I don't, only because @Boobear pointed it out. Then again, she was probably **** because you won't deliver wine. I promise... She's of AGE! Emoticon Anywho, I have a few critiques on the home page. - The Time part: Be very prepared for the very very picky shoppers. Per say: "My head of lettuce has to look like this, and not soft, but firm". (I'm gonna get burned for that one). - On the quick overview, You said you'll let us know when it's ready; however, on the next section under Convenience, it states during your pickup hours. Just a thought there. - Deliver: Agree with the first sentence. That is a total PITA IMO... Second sentence is counter-productive. Either way, there's a vehicle on the road right? Just eliminate or reword best to your strategy. - What are you going to do about our crazy moms (mine included) who want their Kroger & Randall's points?Emoticon  4951
