Curbside Pickup Via Big Y myPicks
The retailer offers curbside pickup services, known as the myPicks service. This will not only help you save time, given that you can cater to other chores while a personal shopper handpicks the items you’ve purchased for you, but it will also save you money as it is free. Curbside pickup is currently available only in select locations. To see if Big Y offers this service at your local store, make sure to check the FAQ page.
In case they offer myPicks in your area and you want to try it, the entire shopping process is fairly simple and goes as follows. Go to the retailer website and sign in. If you don’t have an account, create one. Then, if you have digital coupons or other savings, load them before navigating to myPicks. Once you’ve done that, add the items of interest to your shopping cart, select a time slot and a day for pickup, and then place your order.

Big Y Free Delivery through Instacart
Until myPicks includes home delivery, you can seize Big Y’s partnership with Instacart to have your favorite products delivered to your home in as fast as 1 hour. You can do so via the Instacart website or app. After you’ve added the products you want to purchase to your shopping cart and placed your order, a personal shopper will do the shopping for you and deliver your order.
What’s great is that you can communicate with the shoppers and keep track of your order. As far as the delivery fees are concerned, they start at $3.99 when you spend over $35 and opt for same-day delivery. This fee varies, though. For example, if you spend under $35 or opt for 1-hour delivery, then chances are that it will be higher.

DoorDash
You can also shop for your favorite Big Y meals from the convenience of your home via DoorDash. To meet all of its customers’ shopping needs, the retailer also partnered with this delivery provider so that you can enjoy your most-loved meals from its menu and do so comfortably from your place.
