When I discovered of Alice.com my first thought was: “This company MUST have been created by parents of children with special needs!”
What is Alice.com you wonder?
Think of products you use everyday delivered to your door.
You know those in the middle of the night grocery store trips because you just ran out of diapers?
Or in my case, I’m in the hospital with Parker and my kids are calling to let me know we just ran out of stuff for their lunch bags.
Even when I’m at home, I’m not able to just run out and grab forgotten items. Especially considering that where Parker goes, so go his oxygen tanks, emergency bags, diaper bags, and everything else needed to keep our Brave Hero alive.
But guess what? Our lives just got easier! Because with Alice.com you can:
- Get free shipping with every order
- Manage and automate your life – Alice is a service, similar to Netflix, that makes it very easy for you to manage and automate this entire category of goods so you never run out.
- Use budgeting and advanced planning tools – Alice let’s you plan your purchases, helping you budget and focus your spending, and avoid impulse purchases at the store
- Take advantage of competitive prices – In addition to always free shipping, Alice’s prices are competitive with the traditional mass retailers.
- Get coupons applied automatically – Alice has a completely new couponing system. They automatically find and apply coupons for you on thousands of products, making it easy to save even more without any extra effort.
- Save time and eliminate store trips
- Find all your favorite brands
I had two of my kids help me decide what to put into our cart for our maiden voyage. First, we set up our free account. Then we started picking products from each room in our house that we use the most- laundry soap, hand soap, toilet paper, and of course my kids were all over the great snack selection offered by Alice.com.
Then we told Alice.com how often we wanted to be reminded to order these products. You know, so we won’t ever run out of these items again. Alice.com provides you with options from every two weeks, to every six months!
Now YOU need to run straight over to Alice.com and create your free account and then start selecting your favorite products, take a look at the available coupons and start managing your very own product manager.
Why, you ask?

This would make life SO much easier when we are inpatient for days and weeks on end! Being able to have things delivered to us that I chose myself would be a godsend!!
We’ll be inpatient for some time the end of September, and I would love to order some yummies and essentials during that time!
This would make my life easier because it would cut down on the number of trips to Target around the corner for stupid stuff I forgot last time i went to Target around the corner!!

That has got to be the coolest thing I have heard of in a while. It would help me because I have MS and there are days I can’t drive to the store to get the things we need. I am going to check this out right now!
I have 6 kids ages 6 and under (2 sets of twins) and a husband gone for the next year and a half. How could Alice.com help me? Let me count the ways…
I’ve registered for my account, and it would make my life so much easier due to the limited time I have as a work-outside-the-home mom.
Hi,
I’m a senior citizen in a low-income apt complex. However, I can walk to the library where I can use the computer.
My daugher in VA, (I am in San Diego), told me about Alice. Without a car, I have to walk to the store and usually end up paying a lot because I cannot carry much at one time. There is really only one store close and it is a grocery store so I know I pay a lot for what I have to get.
Most people do not know that many of us are only living on the minimum Social Security which is $502/month.
Alice can help me in that I can save my pennies by not having to buy a Sunday newspaper. The only reason I get one is to get the coupons.
Alice can help me because the items will come to my apt and I don’t have to cart them home. It’s not getting any easier on the old bones to hike to the store and back.
Alice can help me in that they’ll keep track of what I need…as my memory has g.o.n.e.
Thank you for your website. I’ve enjoyed reading it. I have a nephew who has special needs. He has Asperger’s Syndrome and my sister’s family has this challenge to overcome. But these Special children are a blessing on this Earth.
Respectfully, Jan
With 4 kids and a 5th on the way, that would be so useful!
Yay! This sounds so awesome! I can’t tell you how many times I get rude comments from people (mostly generated at the grocery store from ignorant people who know nothing about Tourette’s) so, yes, I subscribe!
This is such an awesome site! Our CLOSEST grocery store is 30 miles away, so I could sure benefit from this service. There is no such thing as a “quick” trip to the store for me! If I forget something at the store I’m just out of luck until my next trip, LOL!
I’m going to do some cost comparisons and then talk to hubby about Alice.com! Looks like a neat site. Thanks for blogging about it!
[...] 5 Minutes for Special Needs $100.00 to Alice.com! (8/28 US only) [...]
Considering gas prices, I think Alice.com would make things easier by helping us prevent extra trips to the store for regularly needed items. I could just let Alice.com remind me to order. Plus, they track coupons for you.

It would make my life easier by not having to run to the store when I am about to run out of something – and the free shipping is fantastic, thanks!
tweet, thanks! http://twitter.com/idahojill/status/3513042641
Some days I just cannot handle getting the wheelchair on/off the bus and the other kids and make an informed decision when shopping! It’s often too much work to leave the house.
It would make my life easier because of the free shipping. How great is it to have your supplies delivered to your own house.
I think Alice would make my life easier because my home has a lot of steps. Lugging the groceries up those steps is no fun. My 7 year old helps to some extent but Ugh! I almost break my back every time. It would be nice to have items delivered right to my door for a change. : )
I subscribe to your feed.
5 Minutes for Special Needs is on my blogs sidebar.
I live on the 3rd floor and I have 2 kids (one is only a month old) so you can imagine how having my groceries shipped to me for FREE would really help me out! Thanks so much!
Ive heard of Alice, but never used it.
This would be handy for toilet paper. With 6 in the house, I always seem to be making trips for toilet paper. It would be nice not to have to run around all the time to get it.
Avoiding a trip to the grocery store? AWESOME.
I’m currently waiting for my 2nd order from Alice.com. I love it!!
