What to check before hiring a daily shopping

Specify preferred brands or acceptable alternatives for essential products.
Keep the receipts you receive — they may be needed for product returns or complaints.
If you have a regular shopping routine, negotiate a fixed monthly price — it's more economical than per-run payment.
Inform the helper about any important allergies or dietary restrictions to avoid wrong purchases.
Notify the shopping helper at least a few hours in advance if you need special items not found in every shop.
Be reachable by phone during the run for any questions — this speeds things up and reduces errors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the shopping helper go to a local farmers' market?

Absolutely. Many shopping helpers prefer local markets where products are fresher and cheaper. Make sure you give them enough cash as not all stalls accept card payments.

What happens if the person is late or can't come?

Can I use the service for online orders (place and collect)?

Yes, some helpers can collect online orders from stores or pickup points and bring them to your home.

How do I communicate what I need to the person?

You can send a list by SMS, WhatsApp, or verbally. Mention quantities, preferred brands, and any special preferences (e.g., ripe fruit, dairy with a specific fat content).

How does payment for the purchased goods work?

You typically pay an estimated amount in advance or give cash before the run. On return you receive the change and receipts. Some helpers also accept bank transfer payments.

Can the person choose quality fresh products (fruit, vegetables)?
