Austin Grocery Delivery Service
Picture this for a minute. A 23-year old Momma’s Bacon is temporarily living by herself in downtown Cincinnati without family for miles around shivering and sniffling to death from a violent cold/flu. She can barely make it to the phone to call work to tell them she needed to take sick leave. As a low graded worker at the time, her shelves are empty of medicine and food. As she sits dying (ok, slightly dramatic here) she suddenly remembers there is a delivery grocery service nearby and fumbles through the *gasp* phone book (nope, no Smart Phone yet). I’m not sure what I ordered, but it put me to sleep and when I came to I had soup to eat. It was a miserable experience, but I realized the importance of a delivery service that can bring you modern staples you desperately need when you can’t get out of the house. Fast forward to now, our family lives in Austin and I have yet to find a great grocery delivery service for our needs just like that. Having two little ones who can sometimes be on the *cough* temperamental side, it is sometimes easier to order than make a trek to the grocery store when only one adult is home.
Burpy.com is the answer to your basic grocery needs in the much-needed delivery service that has been lacking around Austin. Started in Austin and now available in Houston, Burpy has made its way to the un-tapped market that is the good ol’ previously named Waterloo. I, for one, am cheering on this endeavor since I had no idea how much I would miss it since moving south. Burpy.com is currently broken down into six categories; Beverages, Groceries, Snacks & Candy, Health and Beauty and Household Elements. The only thing I see seriously lacking at this time is for baby products like diapers, wipes and formula. I understand the Guadalupe address makes it a prime target for students, but if Burpy’s continues to grow there is a much needed demographic for parents like myself for need last minute items that may not be able to rush out to retrieve on a moments notice. Am I still excited? HECK YES! Do I think Burpy.com will continue to grow in products and services if Austin embraces this new endeavor? Of course! Why not try it out? I find it much more convenient than an HEB stop at Rundburg and Lamar although the armed guards might miss me. Sorry, guys!

Not too shabby considering I never have to leave my house! Believe me, those energy drinks come in handy for both college students and those like my family with a new baby! Plus, the delivery was quick, the driver was courteous and the online experience was simple. Burpy.com offers a unique experience by sending an e-mail immediately after purchase with the driver’s information and picture. I thought that was a nice personal touch. This is definitely a service I plan to use again, especially when I am on my death bed and need some NyQuil!
