Default Re: SPUD Seattle: OMG! I've never been so excited over Small Potatoes before!

I got my SPUD order today and I have to say that I was REALLY pleased.

My food arrived in a large plastic purple tub... no extra bags were used, so I thought that was really cool. :) They'll pick up the tub on my next order.

The tub was pretty full... I ordered:

2 organic apples
2 lbs. organic bananas
10 organic oranges
7th Generation cleaner 32 oz.
Organic Pain Au Levain (bread that you bake at home)
2 cans of organic pizza sauce
6 Organic Whole Wheat English Muffins
24 organic yellow corn tortillas
2 lbs. organic yellow popcorn
8 sponges
box of organic saltine crackers
box of organic raisin bran cereal
2 jars of organic lemonade 32 oz.
and several different SPUD materials to pass along to friends.

Total came to $40 and some change. I doubt I could've bought that same list of things at my local grocery store and paid $40 or less for it. I probably wouldn't even have been able to find all those products at ONE store.

I got a response back from SPUD the day after I emailed them about the promo code. They added it to my account and it was good for $10 off a $25 min. order so that was awesome and unexpected (I was expecting something like 5% off, lol).

Their customer service is awesome and I LOVE that their packing/delivery methods are so eco-friendly. My only (very, very minor) complaint is that a couple oranges look bruised up and have these soft spots on them. Not sure if they got damaged on the trip down or while being packed, but it's pretty minor. I'm sure I can just cut around that part.

So I will definitely be ordering from them again. I love that they don't have a minimum order -- so if I just want to order organic produce one week, I can do that and there's only a nominal delivery charge (I think it's $3.50). That's much better compared to Safeway which has a $50 minimum order requirement and you STILL have to pay a delivery charge on top of that ($7.95 - $9.95).

So way to go SPUD -- you won the organic delivery service smackdown!!!
