  13. [R16] Dollar General-Digital Coupons 2/5 · US Delivery is a joke: Used the app today to try to score some cheaper canned soft drinks. Free delivery was advertised.

  16. [R63] Sam's Club Shopping & Delivery 3/5 · US Reasonable to good pricing, shipping/delivered concerns: Rating generously expresses delivery of purchases. Fairly consistently orders with multiple items arrive with multiple items missing.
