You can arrange to have most of the items, such as groceries, restaurant food, prescriptions, and other things delivered to you without leaving your house. And, almost any non-perishable items can be ordered on Amazon and delivered the next day for free.
Uber is a good in most places….but in TV not so much.. use app all the time in other parts of the country but rarely has the app given me a pick up time here. I can get Uber from Metro airport to my Waterford home ( driver israrely happy no fare back to city for them) but if I want Waterford to Metro nothing available

Same for TV we just don’t have Uber cars sitting around TV hoping for a fair. They sit where they know a constant flow of customers are. Even DoorDash can be iffy at times here.
