Today, I asked my son to go to the grocery store across the street and pick up some lettuce. He sighed and said, "Why don't you just order it on Amazon?" FML

Make sure you use Amazon Prime, and tell him you'll call him down for dinner in 2 days.

You can legitimately order these on amazon. I don't see the issue. He's saving gas, especially if you have Amazon Prime.

75- you don't need gas or two days waiting time to go across the street...

You "legit" are the same type of useless lazy ass we're all talking about. (FYI amazon does not deliver produce everywhere)

Banana King Iceberg Lettuce Salad by Banana King http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B003O3BVX0/ An iceburg lettuce for sale in the UK for 88p. And £6.99 postage. I hope they will post a good sized order for that, not just one lettuce.

The future is here! Not sure if I'm referring to shopping or lazy generation.

Funny thing is, is that you kinda predicted the future. Amazon Now is a thing.

I believe Safeway has a delivery program (they should pay me for having said that), though it probably depends on where you live.

I know that Shoprite on the east coast has a grocery delivery service online.

Man, whatever happened to delivery pizza? It's got carbs, fats, and proteins, so everything that's included in a healthy meal.

Doesn't walmart do it? They do in the uk.

You can. At least, in some cities, you can. Safeway does it, and others. Im in the US, West Coast.

Coles AND Woolworths both do it, just Google your local supermarket with 'online order' and I'm almost positive you will find an online order sheet. best way to shop for the lazy, disabled and those prone to anxiety

Nearly all large UK supermarkets do deliveries, with 1 hour slots, costs me that much to drive 8 miles and back anyway. Everything unloaded onto your worktops from trays, no carrying heavy bags, no splitting bags, no queues - I find the fresh fruit and veg has always been good, though we buy 90% of that locally, and meat.

In my town there's an online site where you can buy from grocery stores--you place your order and they deliver in a couple of hours. Which is better than the two days Amazon Prime takes. It's the sort of thing I may use if I'm really sick and need something or in a pinch. I'm pretty good with going to the grocery store myself.

Well did you hit him upside the head? As if I had ever said that to my parent I would be decked straight away for being super rude and lazy.

It wouldn't have been as rude if he didn't let out a huge sigh before he said it (assuming he didn't have an attitude).

Maybe he didn't want to go because of the trauma from choking last time.

How many of you actually checked? I hope I'm not the only one.

I think lettuce is the one thing Amazon.com DOESN'T sell! Insert lettuce pun here... (This is the first time I've seen Amazon referenced in an FML.)

Unfortunately they do. I had the curious urge to check and oddly enough it was easy to find.

#35 I just checked myself. I found the seed to grow lettuce, but not the actual plant itself. I didn't think lettuce would survive the trip through the mail. Though next time I'll check first before making what I thought was a safe assumption like that. "Meanwhile, in the news, Amazon.com is reporting an unusually high volume of searches for 'lettuce'..."
