Stop & Shop Introduces Pickup At Montville Location

Press release from Stop & Shop:

Sept. 21, 2020

Today, Stop & Shop, a neighborhood grocer for more than 100 years, is launching Pickup services at its Montville, Connecticut, store located at 2020 Norwich-New London Turnpike. The new offering provides local customers with a faster and more convenient way to shop.

Customers can now place an order at www.stopandshop.com or on the Stop & Shop® mobile app, head to the store, and have a Stop & Shop associate load their groceries right into their car in as soon as four hours.

“We’re pleased to be offering a more convenient shopping experience for our community members,” shares Jeremy Pongetti, Montville Stop & Shop Store Manager. “We hope that our new service helps to provide the Montville community with an easier way to shop for their family’s groceries saving them time and money.”

To schedule a Pickup, customers can visit the mobile app or www.stopandshop.com, click on “Order Online” and select “Pickup” at the Montville location. Customers can then head to the store at their chosen Pickup time, park in a designated Pickup spot, and call to let the store team know they have arrived.

Stop & Shop team members will then deliver the order right to their car. Stop & Shop has altered its Pickup policies with associate and customer safety in mind. Customers are asked to have their trunk or door open for associates to place groceries directly into their vehicle. Customers are also encouraged to wear masks and limit the number of people in their vehicle, when possible. In addition, all Stop & Shop Pickup associates will be wearing masks and follow all of the same sanitizing precautions as its in-store associates, including surface sanitization and regular hand washing.

Due to customer demand, supply may be limited for certain items like disinfecting wipes and other cleaning products and may not be available for purchase. Purchase limits are also still in place for certain high-demand items, and customers are encouraged to allow for comparable substitutions.

New customers can receive the service free for 90 days by entering SSFREEPICKUP at checkout. Minimum purchase required. Online Pickup fee is waived on the first order and then on all subsequent orders of $30 or more if placed within 90 days of the first order. Valid for first-time residential customers only in select zip codes. Offer excludes alcoholic beverages, gift cards, postage stamps and any other purchases prohibited by law. Offer not transferable. Limit 1 per household. Enter code at first order checkout. Not valid with any other offer. Expires 12/31/2020.

For returning customers, a $2.95 Pickup fee is applicable on all orders with a minimum order of $30. For more information on the new service or to schedule a Pickup, visit www.stopandshop.com or download the Stop & Shop mobile app.
