Ordering food over the internet?
This past week we tried "matsmart.se" to buy discount food. Interesting idea, and here are the pros and cons.
Pros:
Food to your door at a good price
Kids think it is awesome to get a package and open everything
They actually sell some things that I haven't seen in local stores
Cons:
Some things were so "cheap" because they were actually the smaller size of what we normally buy at the store....like that mini-box of cereal and the almost empty bag of dried cherries.
They call things a discount, but they are based on the high end stores' normal price, so a bit of sensibility is needed to realize if it is truly a discount.
Some of the food is almost expired, thus the lower price. Some things are not bothered by their expiration date, others go a bit weird...
I realize afterwards that I tended to buy things that looked tasty, compared to buying at a store based on a shopping list....like that chocolate, cookies, etc...
Will I do it again, absolutely!
