Run Your Groceries Right to Your Kitchen

by quasar Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Nov 26 '00
Pros: slice to order deli, great service, always refunds cost of damaged items
Cons: some items damaged, infrequent item mixups, selection could be a lot better
I can't drive and for years I've been taking the bus or cabs to go grocery shopping. Then PeaPod and later HomeRuns came to my area. No more lugging bags on the bus or expensive cab rides for me!

I went back and forth on which service I liked...

Big Hitter!

by jillyjilly2x4 , Dec 13 '00
Pros: Quality, service, good sale prices
Cons: Minimum $50 order, Min. 24HR delivery
Man, between HomeRuns and Kozmo I may never leave the house again! No seriously, I'm one of those freakish people who *likes* to go to the grocery store. I even clip coupons out of the Sunday paper for relaxation... I know, odd... My point is that if...

They solved all of my problems!

by scooterbos , Jan 08 '01
Pros: Full-service supermarket
Cons: At least one-day wait for delivery
(July 13, 2001 Update: I'm sorry to say that I was right about Homeruns' business prospects. Yesterday the company shut down for lack of funding. Too bad Homeruns couldn't make it; while it lasted, it was extremely convenient. Oh well, I guess...

Mixed Feelings

by owling Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jul 01 '00
Pros: price, produce, selection, delivery
Cons: web site, order mistakes
We started using HomeRuns because we were tired of dealing with hour-long trips to grocery stores that charged too much and had terrible produce. We were skeptical at first, but as soon as we started using the service we were amazed. Not only was the...

Save money, time, and energy!

by LizaKM , Jul 06 '00
Pros: Everything! What a great service!
Cons: Nothing.
I think Homeruns is one of the best online services available! Why? Well, let me give you a little background first. I am a college student, living in an apartment in Boston for the summer with five of my friends. We live on the fifth floor of an...

Homeruns? How about Strikeouts?

by youknowwhat , Mar 29 '01
Pros: Time and energy saver. Grocery shopping list on line.
Cons: Unreliable delivery. Poor problem-solving. High charge.
I have used Homeruns five times. This time they did it. I will switch to an alternative. Here is why:

- Out of the five times, only once did Homeruns do my order perfect and clean. The batting average of .200 would certainly not qualify...

Better HomeRun record than Mark McGuire!!

by misagracie , Mar 19 '00
Pros: No longer being stuck in those lines!!
Cons: They don't do house cleaning
I have detested the duty of dragging myself to the grocery store every week to buy necessities my entire adult life. I hate the crowds, the coupons, the lines and the squeaky wheel that is always on my grocery cart. HomeRuns has provided salvation from...

The jury is in!!

by azielinski Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 19 '00
Pros: good products, timely delivery
Cons: customer service still needs some work
** Per a reminder from a fellow epinioner regarding having only one review per item, I have combined my reviews on Homeruns. I hope this gives a complete picture of my experiences.**

When Homeruns started a few years ago it was still...

I was reluctant to try---but I've been very impressed!

by stuzle , May 30 '00
Pros: On time delivery, great produce, all around a great service
Cons: Not many--once I didn't get one item I ordered, but didn't pay for it
I think for many people, the idea of on-line grocery shopping is quite nervewracking. You don't know what kind of quality of food you will be getting, especially produce, you don't know if it will arrive on time, you don't know if it will be easy to...

Hannaford's Did it right!

by jharm55 , Dec 13 '99
Pros: convenience, service, quality, delivery
Cons: a few brands are not available, but the service is constantly adding new ones and always listens to sugestions.
Homeruns, the shopping delivery service from Hannaford's Grocers, is a gift from the gods! I have to admit, I was very skeptical of on-line grocery shopping when my roommate first suggested it. That night I remembered a sign I had seen advertising the...

HomeRuns - a surprise every time!

by fiberglass , May 18 '00
Pros: kind employees, arrive on time, do not accept tips
Cons: overpriced, most of products don't have pictures, units change from product to product.
Ordering from HomeRuns can take more than one hour the first time. Actually it took me an hour and a half and my husband in the background: "let's go to Star Market!" every time I complaint for not having pictures of most of the goods. (Star...

I'm in Heaven Thanks to HomeRuns.com

by rboyer , Dec 09 '00
Pros: What could be better than having quality produce and groceries delivered to your door?!
Cons: You won't make any new friends standing in the long lines at the grocery store! ;)
It could not have been easier. Rather than battling yesterday's snow storm and long lines to do my major grocery run for the month, I logged on to HomeRuns.com, shopped for groceries in the comfort of my home and relaxed while my order was put together...

Homeruns -pros and cons// UPDATE! (big change)

by mich711 , Jan 23 '01
Pros: Now I have trouble finding any pros, since my problems with them.
Cons: FAILED TO DELIVER MY GROCERIES TOO MANY TIMES NOW -big changes with them!
Below is the glowing review I gave Homeruns, a very short while ago. Since then, I had a couple terrible experiences with them, and have seriously reconsidered the business I was planning on doing with them.

Approximately one month ago, I...

Not to your door - To your kitchen!

by neon_angel , Jan 14 '00
Pros: They bring the groceries not only to your door - but to your kitchen!
Cons: not really much of anything. $30 minimum order.
Specific points to consider in your review:

WHY DID YOU ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY?

Because living in Cambridge is not the most convenient place to shop for a household. Yes I can walk to a Star Market near my house, but do I really...

Gotta love these modern conveniences!

by carriebag , Dec 02 '00
Pros: Friendly delivery people, great food, high quality service
Cons: Primitive website, delivery peope enter your home.
My boyfriend and I are very busy people, as I'm sure you are. I go to school full-time and he's a busy professional working 60+ hours a week. To put it plainly, we just don't have time to waste our quality time together planning our shopping and going...
