We’ve been using Safeway.com for the past few years but are constantly disappointed by their service. They frequently have out-of-stock items. They also deliver the wrong items at least every other order. And their site sucks.

Amazon is now testing a grocery delivery service in the Seattle area. Could this be the new webvan? Unfortunately, they’re not yet available in the Bay Area but I can’t wait to try it out.

If you own a dog and believe in “outsourcing” chores as much as I do, here are two excellent services:

Dog Duty
This woman-owned business will come to your house on a weekly basis and pick up your dog poop from your yard. They even bring treats for your dog!

Aussie Pet Mobile
Duncan has sensitive skin so he needs special treatment when getting washed. Enter Aussie Pet Mobile. They come to our house with a fully equipped van where they bathe him, clean his ears, trim his nails, etc. I highly recommend it.
