By: Bridgette

Winner has been notified via email on 7/29

I have a secret that I am dying to tell you. I have been hiding it for what seems like ages now. I have finally gotten the “green light” to spill the beans, so here goes:

I LOVE ALICE!!!

It’s ok, you can tell my husband. He loves Alice, too. You are probably rather confused thinking, “Who the heck is Alice?” But, you should be asking yourself, “What the heck is Alice?”

Recently, I had the opportunity to be a part of a beta testing group for a start-up company called Alice. Once I discovered what Alice could do for me, I was hooked, and I know you will be, too!

Have you ever run out of toilet paper at a very inopportune time? Or reach for a diaper only to find an empty box? Alice is a….

“...unique service which provides big-box savings, free shipping with every order, and a convenient offering so you never run out of household goods or need to run to the store last-minute again. Your favorite products, from those you recognize to those that you can’t always find on the traditional store shelf, will be delivered direct to your door. You’ll find great prices without buying in bulk or paying a membership fee.“

I never thought I could afford to have groceries delivered to my door like Tuesday night’s dinner, much less actually SAVE money this way! The wonderful team that comprises Alice, gave me a $50 credit in order to put this service to the “Mom-test!” Was it really more convenient? Is it a service I could see myself using in the future?

Let me take you through my shopping experience:

First, you must create an account. It is totally FREE and can be canceled at anytime (in case you have a fear of commitment, LOL!). Being a Mom, I headed straight for the one item used most at my house….diapers! By typing in the keyword “diapers”, I easily found the brand we generally buy (Pampers). In fact, after adding it to my cart, I noticed that not only was the price competitive to my local grocery store, but Alice found and applied a $1.00 off coupon for me! Now THAT is service!

And for all the list-making mamas out there, Alice offers some great planning tools! In a section called, My Products, you can add products you normally buy at the store along with the frequency with which you buy. Alice then sorts your items and will remind you when it is almost time to stock up!

Before I knew it, I had spent my $50 and checked my cart. Whoa! I actually got 11 items for $50 including razor blades, breakfast cereal bars, toilet paper, diapers, toddler snacks, gum, dish washing liquid and more! Alice managed to apply over $18 in coupons to my order and I didn’t have to clip one single coupon! And did I mention that shipping is FREE on every order (no minimum purchase!)? How does Alice do it?

From the website:

“Alice isn’t your average retailer. You order from Alice just like you would a retailer, but behind the scenes we work like a marketplace, allowing manufacturers to sell directly to you. This direct to consumer model eliminates the retail middleman, saving lots of costs that can be passed directly on to you.”

Not having to stand in a check-out line + saving money + having groceries delivered to my door for FREE = true love!
