Hi Shai, I have been looking for a shopping service. I will check them out thoroughly. I have this service where I live, and I definitely want a shopping service like this. $99 a year isn't a bad deal, and matter of fact, this service is right where my favorite store is. Can I ask you if you order an item, and the store is out of it, will the shopper call you to let you know, or to ask you if you want to replace it with something else? Do you use this app on the phone, or on the pc? Is there somewhere on the app to ask the shopper to please check the expiration date especially on the dairy products? I can't even begin to say how many times when I'm at the store, and the shopper picks up the products, and I ask him or her to check the expiration date, and low in behold, it was out dated some days ago. Do you have your credit card information saved on their web site, so you don't have to enter it every time you place an order? Is there a certain amount for the tip? If you have a problem with the purchases, can you call someone to report or if you don't get what you asked for, but still been charged for it? Am I right in assuming this app is accessible with VoiceOver?
Thank you so much.

One does not have to subscribe to the $99 service, but they will pay the delivery fees and any other applicable prices. I know that this is also the same in San Diego as well. I have seen sales on different items through them.
