Then in Manhattan there was another service called FreshMarket (which got me confused when I got here and saw the store with the same name, but there's no connection.) Everything they delivered was carefully handpicked and fresh, even things like ice cream. I loved it and wish we had it here, especially now when the stores are so crowded.

There is already a grocery delivery business here in TV. Grocery Delivery

Also, you mention $6 for a delivery? In an environment the geographical size of The Villages, with todays price of gas and the level of wages, you'd be living in the past if you think anyone would come anywhere close to $6 for that kind of service. I would expect that kind of price back in the '60's or early '70's, but not today! Would you do it for $6? I certainly wouldn't!
