You have probably seen a giant Peapod container sitting at Fort Totten metro station for the past few weeks. Starting this week, you can now pick up your Giant groceries at the metro station, according to the Washington Post. We covered Metro’s six-month pilot partnership with Peapod in this post last year. Customers can place online orders for pickup between 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. The pickup address is 550 Galloway Street NE.
Personally, since I do not have a car, I usually walk the mile to the Giant on Eastern Avenue for my grocery shopping. That is not a big burden as long as it is not freezing outside. Being able to pick up groceries on the way home from work will be a convenience for which I would consider paying a fee.
