Leaving out a lot of the North side there. I was going to sign up and give it a shot (currently use Peapod) but they don't deliver to me.

They're still not covering my part of Silicon Valley (south bay), I'm still awaiting an invite :) Max? Please?

Everytime I think about using instacart I see the prices are all significantly higher than me schlepping my butt down to whole foods / berkeley bowl and I don't see it as worth it.

Seriously, it's as hot as the last circle for about 20 percent of the year, but when it's 10 degrees out you sack up and deal with it.

I live in Chicago but I'm originally from the south. I feel exactly the opposite. To me, it feels a little bit warm in the summer for all of a month or two, then it's cold as hell in January and February.

You acclimate. This is why you see Chicagoans wearing shorts in March when the temperature hits 50F.

Chicago though?

Yeah, the third largest city in the US with 2.7 million people. Perhaps you've heard of it?
