From time to time, I post items verbatim as a community service. This time, I’m posting an e-mail not so much as a community service, but as a favor to someone who asked kindly and is providing a new service that I find unique and helpful. And I’m doing so in spite of the fact that the evil Memphis Flyer also posted something about them. ;)
Greetings,
My name is Derek Whitlock. My wife and I have just opened a grocery delivery service, The Memphis Shopping Bag, covering the Downtown and East Memphis areas. Though we have already started to generate business, I would greatly appreciate your input and observations of our site and service. As well as any assistance you could provide in informing the community about our business. Thank you for your time and efforts,

Thanks for sharing this, Mick! I had always hoped something like this would have been around when we lived in Memphis. I used to use “PeaPod” (a service like this) when we lived in Chicago and really liked it!

This is awesome. Our city really needs this type of service particularly us downtowners. Their website is very user friendly. Thanks for the info.
