Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is TheOriginalOnlineGroceryStore.com?
TheOriginalOnlineGroceryStore.com is an online retail store featuring grocery products including baking supplies, beverages, boxed meals & side dishes, breafast foods, canned & packaged goods, condiments, sauces & spreads, health & family, herbs, spices, & seasonings, household supplies, pasta & grains, pet supplies, snacks, and cookies & candy. The site is associated with Amazon.com to provide a large selection of items.
2. Who created the site?
TheOriginalOnlineGroceryStore.com was started by The Grocery Lady, a stay-at-home mom. She enjoys shopping online and has a long history of retail merchandising, buying and management. The Grocery Lady wanted to have an organized site where she could see items for various types of groceries from several different grocery producers. Since there was no site like that available, she started her own. The result is TheOriginalOnlineGroceryStore.com.
3. What does 'Associated with Amazon.com' mean?
TheOriginalOnlineGroceryStore.com works with the content from Amazon.com, but organizes it into an arrangement that is easier to follow than having to do it at Amazon's own site. Instead of having to find the grocery category on Amazon, then do the search, and remember how to return to your original start point, we've done all the work for you.
4. Why not just shop at Amazon directly?
You are certainly free to do so. However, Amazon requires you to actively search through their database for specific items. And unless you are an expert at search queries, sometimes that gives you results you don't want. We filter out incorrect results as much as possible, and provide you with a shopper-friendly list of grocery products. All you have to do at TheOriginalOnlineGroceryStore.com is simply click on a grocery category and you're shown the available grocery products in that category. What could be simpler?
5. Is shopping on this site safe and secure?
Of course you are safe and secure on our site. When you shop, only your selections are stored in an online shopping cart on-site (we neither request, nor receive ANY personal information about you). When you're ready to check out, the contents of the cart are seamlessly and securely passed along to Amazon.com's secure server. Your sensitive personal information is never required on TheOriginalOnlineGroceryStore.com site, so there's no need to worry about your purchase or payment details being seen by us. All of your payment details are encrypted by Amazon by the time you're ready to pay.
6. How can I be contacted about items on sale?
You can sign up for the Grocery Bargain Newsletter by clicking the filling in the form and hitting the submit button. Each week The Grocery Lady will search through the grocery products on sale and send a short email to remind you of the specials. The newsletter is opt-in with confirmation, so you will only receive it if you sign up and confirm your free subscription on the confirmation email. You can cancel your subscrition at any time and you will never receive another email from us again. Read our privacy and security policies to understand how we protect your information in our email lists.
