Online grocery shopping - help a British guy out

Sooooo, I need a website that I can order food online to be delivered to old key west, we don't need a lot of stuff but things we want to order are stuff we can't get in the uk or really on site at wdw here's my list:

Milk
OJ
cereal, lucky charms, fruit loops, musli
Pop tarts
Cereal bars
Coffe ground

E.l.Fudge cookies
Chips ahoy

Cheetos big bags
Lays big bags

Beer
Wine

Candy and snacks

Where can I grab all of this with out much stress? Also what things are easier to just bring, for example coffee and cereal bars.

You can get coffee, beer, and wine on resort site, you just can't afford to pay for anything else afterward. wink

We actually smuggle small bottles of vino and some brandy into a plastic container (safely inside sipped bags to "assist us." So, we have never gone the route of food delivery. Do they just leave it at the front desk and you pick it up???

we use http://www.wegoshop.com/index.html and they have always been great. they don't charge extra for the groceries, they charge a delivery fee depends on how much you spend. you set up a time to have it delivered and they will meet you, it has always been on time for us. you can also order beer and wine. if for some reason your room not ready or you cant meet them at the time of delivery they will deliver it to concierge who will keep anything that needs to be refrigerated in the refrigerator and deliver it to you when you are available. we found it cheaper than garden grocer

We used the Garden Grocer on our list trip to Old Key West.

Groceries all there waiting for us when we arrived.

The luggage staff took us, our bags and our grceries to the room.
He even lugged all of it upstairs while we checked out the rooms.

Pricey but worth not having to go yourself to Walmart.
awesome

We used Garden Grocer last year, everything was there waiting when we arrived. Easy to use site and good quality food.

I used GG three times now and they were flawless. And they have booze!

So if we went thru GG, and ordered ahead AND paid ahead, it's just waiting at the main lobby? I clarify because it says something about arranging a "pick up time" with them and that isn't going to happen right away. But I do like the idea of a bit of items in the room.

They leave everything with bell services. They know to refrigerate whatever needs refrigeration. Its all paid in advance. Pretty seemless. Of course the prices are jacked. But a better selection than the Disney stores.

You do have to pick a delivery time slot but we were held up in immigration for an absolute age last year and bell hop keep it for you. You can start a list with them (GG not bell hop!) and add and take stuff away and then check out your virtual trolley nearer to the day. It means you can get the time you want. It is a much wider selection of goods than Disney offer.

Yes, and I must be honest in that many of those "adult beverges" listed were not priced in a way that would make me gasp. In our neck of the country (and it is not red) paying $16 for a 18-24 bottle pack of beer is only a couple above our price. With delivery on top, yes, a bit higher. But I didn't waste time on a bus and I am not hauling food on the bus (we don't rent a car).

Thanks!

If you rent a car, go to Wal-Mart as it will probably be close and cheap!

If you enjoy a beer or six, give Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA a shot- it's the nectar of the Gods with 10% ABV

Also fun are the Seagrams frozen slushies with alcohol already included. I recommend the Black cherry.

Wow, I sound like an alcoholic.
