    Default Garden Grocer? How far in advance can you order??

    Last time I tried 5 days out and all the delivery times were full for the week.

    We go in 17 days, wondering if I should get my order in soon or if it's too soon??

    Thanks

    i would order now - we usually order 1 month in advance because their delivery windows can get sold out - they only take so many delivery requests per day - we have used them several times now and they have always been great - have a great vacation!!!

    I ordered on Tuesday for my Sunday delivery-no problem. Maybe they have extra staff on hand for this week before easter.

    They told me to do it 30 days in advance to make sure I got a spot. They can run out of spots at any time so the more in advance you do it the better chance you have at getting one especially during holidays and the summer time.

    Thanks for the heads up about that. We are going in just over 2 months and were planning on having a delivery also.

    Yep, get it in while you can! And for those who have never done his but are staying in a villa... try it. As good and deliciously bad for you as most Disney breakfasts are, there is something about getting up and making bacon and eggs for everyone or pancakes, knowing it cost you about as much as breakfast for just you would. Plus, you can eat, put the dishes in the sink and wash them later and head out to the parks first thing, no waiting in line for a table or for your food. Just up, eat and go. Plus having the food delivered to you make sit easier. No need to rent a car or pay for over priced groceries at the trading posts, etc.
    Definitely worth a try.

    Last time we used them I almost couldn't get the day that I wanted. I didn't get the time but at least I got the right day. Order as soon as you can.

    We used them for one of our trips and found them to be great - good choice and super convenient! I didn't know that they get booked up in their delivery times - thanks for letting us know!

    We are going on June 13. If we book waaay in advance to get a delivery date, can I add to my order as I think of things I want? I am sure I could not think of everything 2 months early!

    i have never had to add to an order so im not so sure about what their policies are on add ons but what i do is think about the times that we will be in the hotel room -such as early a.m so i get pop tarts, cereal and breakfast bars - then of course late evening so i get pop corn, chips and cookies - general snack and munchie food - then i get sodas, a case of water and juice boxes - this way you don't over order plus you always have your hotels little store to pick up milk or anything you forgot to order - and dont forget if you're flying order your shampoo/condtioner and sunblock - this way they wont explode in your carry on
