Did 7-Eleven just out flank Amazon?

The QT near my work has signs on the doors about delivery, but I think they're just using one of the food delivery services. I think you have to order through the QT smartphone app.

There is an outfit out there called "Grubhub" that goes to a restaurant/fast food place and picks up food for people who have used their service to order. Sad thing is, Grubhub seems to require that they get priority service, so if someone has been waiting in line for some time, they tend to get ticked off when Grubhub shows up and gets that priority service.

People with green cards rejoice. Need Doritos and a slurpee. Dont have to pause your Bevis and Butt-head marathon, just have 7-11 bring you some munchies.

Oh...those green cards. I see what you did there.

I wouldn't mind QT bringing me a couple grilled cheese sammiches. We don't have 7-11 up this way.

Someone in my neighborhood loves to use these services. I live in on the corner of a Cul-de-sac where the streets change names, so I always have folks trying to figure out where they are. In the last month I have had 2 or 3 people try to give me food that wasn't mine. One was during the Tornado outbreak a couple weeks ago. No way I would be delivering food in that type of weather.

Uber will deliver some things. Not sure if QT is on their "pickup list" but could be.

I've seen signs on business doors around here advertising that they deliver through Postmates.

Come to think of it, the sign might've been for Uber Eats.

I've used GrubHub before; that's who Yelp uses for their backend when you place an order through their app.

It's nice to be able to have ice cream (and food from other places that don't deliver on their own) delivered to your door when you're feeling like finely-hammered dog poo.

Wonder if the Oklahoma 7-11 is doing this. They are not part of the national chain so who knows?

The convenience stores owned and operated by 7-Eleven Stores of Oklahoma are the only independently owned stores that carry the 7-Eleven brand, thanks to a special arrangement made in 1953 between owner William "Bill" Brown and 7-Eleven Inc. The Oklahoma stores are neither licensees nor franchisees of the national chain, but are totally independent.

Diabetes to my door?! %&^$ yeah, 'Merica. Actually, there's one close enough that I can get there faster than they can find me. And if I am that drunk that I have to call in an air strike for beer..., I should prolly stop.
