I don't know if this is the right board for my question but there once was a company that was able to deliver a few groceries to the resort hotels. Does anyone know of a company that still delivers? My husband is a pepsi man and WDW is strictly coke. If there isn't, I'm thinking about calling a taxi to go to a store and back. Anyone do that? It will be a long two weeks if he can't get his pepsi, LOL.

Go to GardenGrocers.com. They will deliver to the resort. Or take a cab to Hess Gas Station and get the Pepsi there. Figure about $30 to 40 for the cab fare

Another vote for Garden Grocer…I just used them for the first time last month and it was great! They call to confirm your order and also to let you know once it's been delivered to bell services. There's a minimum order amount and small delivery fee but it still saved us money on eating breakfast and snacks at the parks. My son also likes Pepsi so it made him happy to get his Pepsi fix while we were on vacation!

Thanks everyone. I am now in contact with Garden Grocer. Last time we tried, Hess didn't have Pepsi either.

We use Garden Grocer for a number of reasons. One is that they carry Gatorade, a Pepsi product. I prefer Coke, but when someone prefers Pepsi.....they have to have Pepsi. GG provides excellent service and I highly recommend them.

Another thing to consider is (especially if you have an Amazon Prime membership) is to use their PrimePantry. Soda, bottled water, granola bars and more delivered for $5.99 and no $40 minimum like Garden Grocer (at least that's what it was when we used it in December). You can't get beer or produce like garden grocer but its a lot less expensive and you need to provide a lot less notice for an order.

Garden Grocer will end up saving you money, versus a two-way taxi fare. Even with the delivery fee, it's cheaper to use GG. I had a great experience with them. You can build a "shopping cart" over time, adding and deleting items as needed. You can even order wine and beer, plus things like sunscreen, diapers, and all sorts of other stuff. You even get to be really specific in your ordering, choosing from things like green (unripe) or yellow (already ripe) bananas!

They deliver during a delivery window of your choice. We asked them to deliver in the morning, several hours before our pane landed. The bell services department at AoA put our refrigerated items in their big fridge until we arrived, and deivered everything to our room when we gt there . Worked like a charm!

How do you make this happen? This sounds great! Do you call AoA and let them know you have a delivery coming?
