Click2Go services allow commissary shoppers to buy groceries online and pick them up curbside.
Recently I heard about a new service at certain military commissaries that is going to make life a lot easier for commissary shoppers.
Click2Go services!
With this type of service you can order your groceries online, choose a time you want to go get them, pickup your food and head home. You will be able to pickup your food curbside. What a great convenience.
This type of service is ideal for the military community where most families have to bring all the children to the store with them. It also will be handy for those with special needs. I would have loved to have something like this when my kids were younger. It would have saved time and a lot of stress.
Unfortunately, it is currently only offered at 3 commissaries: Fort Lee, Offutt Air Force Base and Travis Air Force Base.
How does Click2Go work?
You create an account, log-in and then virtually browse through all the foods. Add the foods you want to your online cart. When you are ready to check out, you can do so by reserving your pickup time. You can also tell the system if you are OK with replacement orders if they are out of stock of one of the foods you have put in your cart. Once you submit your order, you should be able to pick it up at your selected time.You must place your order at least 6 hours before you want to pickup your food.
How do I pay with Click2Go?
Most grocery items will be offered with this system. There will be a limited amount of meat, bakery, deli and seafood items. You will not pay for the groceries online. You pay when you pickup the items. You will be given an estimated total but the actual total will be based on the prices at the time of pickup.
New Click2Go services are ideal for military families.
Should I tip with Click2Go?
It is also important to know that you are not allowed to tip the person that brings out the food.
You can visit the Click2Go website for more information.
I think this service could be a good one. I think time will tell if it works out the way it should. I am sure if it is going to come to other commissaries, but that will not happen for a few more years.
Here is one military spouse’s review of the Click2Go service.
Have you or would you use the Click2Go service at the commissary? Have you used a curbside grocery service similar to this one?
