Grocery delivery and meal kits: which one fits you

There are four ways to get food to your door, and each fits a different week. Here is what each kind of service is good at, so you can pick without signing up for everything.

TrohnDeals is reader-supported: some store links are affiliate links, so we may earn a commission when you buy, at no extra cost to you. How this works.

You want your usual groceries, delivered

Delivery services shop real stores near you, so you get the brands you already buy. Good when you know what you want and just don't have time to go.

Walmart

Grocery & Food

Everyday low prices with grocery pickup and delivery in many areas.

Shop Walmart

You want to cook, but not plan

Meal kits send recipes with the ingredients already measured. EveryPlate keeps things simple and lower cost; HelloFresh has a bigger menu with more choices each week.

You don't want to cook at all

Prepared meals arrive ready to heat and eat in a few minutes. Good for busy work weeks or lunches.

You want to stock up on something specific

Specialty boxes cover what a regular store does less well: US meat and seafood, Asian and Hispanic groceries, or discounted organic produce that looks imperfect but tastes the same.

Weee!

Before you sign up

Most kits and boxes are subscriptions. Check the delivery days for your ZIP code, set a reminder for when to skip or pause a week, and compare the price per serving with your normal grocery bill. Prices and first-order offers are set by each company and change often.
