Basically for the length of the pandemic up to now, I have used PC Express pickup at my local No Frills. Order online, go there at 9 on a Saturday morning and they load it into the car and off I go. Moved last week to a town a half hour away and the local No Frills here doesn't do curbside, you have to go in to get your pre-picked order. So we gave Walmart a shot. I have to say that it's handy how Walmarts have taken their former auto shops and made them grocery pickups at a few of the stores I have been by. But the big pain is that while No Frills just drops the bags in the back and off you go, Walmart brings out your order in plastic totes and the guy has to unload them item by item into whatever you have in the back (I put 4 laundry baskets there, but I saw one lady with just a pile of bags that the guy was packing). Took forever, especially since this was a "first groceries in our new house" order. I'm also very used to the brands we get from No Frills over the last 13 years.
Man, have I ever been spoiled and gotten lazy about groceries the last few years. I may give No Frills a shot with the indoor pickup, but I might decide if I'm doing that, I might as well just go back to shopping for myself too.
