My One Stop Grocery Shop

8 ratings

For the amount of cooking I do, I thought an article on where I shop often would help build the online ecosystem and marketplace. Do you know there is an online grocery store called BigBasket.com where I shop from which takes grocery shopping to a whole new level? You can find everything you need to run a kitchen and also everyday household goods. It is an ideal place to do your weekly shopping as you’re likely to get everything you want in one place, which is unusual in India!

And why do I like shopping online? First, I save two hours of driving back and forth from a grocery store and also the extra time, effort and energy to get the grocery to my house. By using online shops like BigBasket.com, life has become really simple - You just have to visit the website to know what I really mean.

The other best thing I like about online shopping is, shopping at odd hours. I don’t have to wait for the shop to open and I dont have to stand in long queues for checout. I simply order online, choose a time slot for delivery, pay online by credit card, and all the items get delivered right into my kitchen. Isn't that just so perfect. And I order multiple times a week. For me its like going to my Online Kirana store.

And to top it all, they even deliver grocery items when there is bandh or whole city has shutdown. At these situations the onlineshopping is a great gift, as I plan and schedule my deliveries as per my requirement. Dont you think?

I personally beleive in eating fresh and buying locally available ingredients. For this shopping healthy fruits and vegetables is a priority. And having a healthy diet ensures that everyone in the family is healthy too. At BigBasket.com I am able to find all the daily needs from fresh vegetables and fruits organic groceries like organic pulses and beans, cereals, spices and condiments, nuts, dry fruits, Indian masala mixes, edible oils, health foods and juices, organic ready to eat food, organic branded frozen food items and much more! So if you are looking for best organic food brands in India, you are already at the right place!

Apart from food items, I also end up shopping everyday household cleaning items like brooms, brushes, mops and dust cloth.So much so that all of my kids school stationary needs like pens, pencils, erasers and even notebooks are taken care off by online shopping at bigbasket.

You would not believe that I shopped online for the Diwali Festival apart from the online grocery too? I bought gift baskets, diyas, pooja items etc and I was so pleased that I did not have to run around to find small things that take a lot of time and energy.

Ok, now to the better part of trusting online shopping. Returns are easy too. If I did not like a product or a vegetable, I simply send it back and they add the credits back to the card, with no questions asked.

Life has defintely become so much more easier, where I now get enough time to focus on the work at hand and thats creating recipes for you from my kitchen.That is the reason I have still sticked to the same online store for so long from their inception. I have seen them grow and they have just got better by the years.

If we are ever in a hurry, the store will shop for us and have all of our items bagged up and keep them ready at outdoors. It definitely sounds great right!
