To say that online grocery shopping took off over the last year and a half would be an understatement. And whether it's a newfound preference or a continued need, a lot of you, dear Kitchn readers, have truly embraced online grocery shopping as a staple in your routine. Whatever your reason, there are plenty of online services, new and old, that can help you. That being said, with so many sites and programs popping up over the last year, finding the right one for you may still be something you're working on. To help make things a little easier for you, we've decided to highlight some of our favorite sites. Here are seven of our favorite places to score top-notch groceries from the comfort of your home.

1. Thrive Market

You have to be a member in order to shop on Thrive Market (think of it as the Costco of the internet), and that'll cost you $60 for the year. But once you're in, you can shop all sorts of fun things. There are starter kits for special diets like keto, Whole30, Paleo, or gluten-free. While most of the groceries are shelf-stable, you can find a great selection of meat and seafood in bulk. You've also gotta try the private-label brand. And if your order totals more than $49, the shipping is free.

2. Fresh Direct

3. Shipt

How it works: Available in over 260 cities, Shipt delivers fresh produce and home essentials from local grocers as well as popular retailers like Costco, CVS, Target, and Petco. You'll need a membership to use Shipt, however, and the cost is $14 per month, or $99 per year. A personal shopper will hand-pick each item in your order, sending text updates along the way and letting you add or substitute products in your cart. Note that Shipt's personalized service might come at a cost and some products could have a slight markup. Delivery is free on orders of $35+, and you can change the delivery address to send groceries to friends and family.

4. Boxed

How it works: Most of the offerings on Boxed are shelf-stable, but if you go through the Express Grocery channel, (which sends a Boxed Shopper out to do your bidding, assuming you're in an approved area), you can get seafood, frozen foods, dairy, and the usual. There's no membership fee to shop Boxed, although you can pay $49 a year to join Boxed Up, which gets you free or discounted shipping (normally $6.99 for orders less than $49) and 2 percent cash rewards.

We love the company's private-label brand, Prince & Spring, but the most exciting thing to point out is the fact that you can get some of Costco's private-label goods here too. That's right — you can shop all sorts of Kirkland Signature items including the chef-approved organic extra-virgin olive oil and the famous rotisserie chicken! You'll pay a little more for these items, but if you don't have a Costco membership, it's a good little work-around.

5. AmazonFresh

How it works: Of course Amazon has a grocery delivery option! AmazonFresh is available in most major cities and is newly free for all Prime members. You can shop fresh produce, meat and seafood, organic stuff, prepared meals, local goodies (specific to where you are) and more. Oh, and of course, you can shop Whole Foods Market, specifically. Honestly, you'll be hard-pressed to find something that's NOT on the site.

6. Instacart

How it works: Instacart gives you the ability to order from a few different stores at once. (Your options depend on what's in your area, but examples include CVS, Wegmans, Aldi, and Costco or Sam's Club — yes, even if you don't have a membership.) You get a friendly personal shopper who will run your errands and you can choose from pick-up or delivery. Prices are Instacart's own, though, and are often (but not always) more expensive than they are in the stores. Which means you'll pay for the convenience.

7. Yümmy Bazaar

How it works: Yümmy Bazaar's motto is "Discover the world through food." Use this service to shop for high-quality pantry staples, baking ingredients, snacks, sweets, and other shelf-stable goods that hail from all around the world. Shipping is free within the continental U.S. if you purchase $59 worth of products or more.
