In Minneapolis, we've had grocery delivery for quite a while now through Coborn's Delivers (http://www.cobornsdelivers.com/). It used to be Simon Delivers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimonDelivers), a startup that went under and then was taken over by an existing local grocery chain.

We pay $5 for next-day delivery or $10 for same-day (for orders of at least $50, otherwise add another $5 to delivery).

It's a huge time saver, we have groceries delivered every Sunday and they have good selection and produce. The prices are a little more expensive, but it's totally worth it for us.

The startup I'm working at also uses it periodically to have soda and snacks delivered. Much easier and more reliable than having to send someone out every few weeks.
