Publix delivery is convenient, and here are five ways you can use it to help you live your best life.

1. Send a gift.

You can order floral arrangements, balloons and cookies to be delivered to a home or work location for a special occasion. A Publix customer sent a custom cookie cake and flowers to his wife for her birthday. The Instacart shopper even sang “Happy Birthday” to her upon delivery.

2. Keep family traditions alive and well.

When it comes to the holidays, many of us have traditions of baking cookies with grandparents or helping prepare Thanksgiving dinners with relatives, but making the trip isn’t always possible. Let your loved ones know you’re thinking of them by sending them all the ingredients they need to keep the tradition alive, then video chat as you prep together, but miles apart.

3. Feed your college student.

Sure, you could send your college student money or a gift card to purchase food, but if you want to make sure they’re eating all the food groups, send groceries to their dorm or apartment using our grocery delivery service. You can even send a cake on their birthday to let them know you’re thinking of them or to congratulate them on surviving mid-terms.

4. Throw an epic party.

Planning a party can be difficult, and when you factor in the pre-party food shopping, it leaves little time for party prep — unless you’re using our grocery delivery service. You can prep for the party and have time to spare. And if you live in North Carolina or Florida, you can say bye-bye to the mid-party beer runs. Beer and wine can be delivered in North Carolina and Florida. Florida customers can also order from most Publix Liquor locations.

5. Dinner date dilemmas solved.

Use the tools on publix.com to find an easy, but impressive, recipe for your dinner date. Then, head over to publix.com/shop or use the Publix delivery app to order what you need. Use the time you save to get ready.
