The few times we tried it it actually took longer to shop online than actually
do it in the shop.


I don't see how that is even possible. I just add items to my shopping
basket whenever I'm close to running out of them. That takes about as
long as writing them on a shopping list would.

Then placing the order at the end of the week takes far less time than
walking to the shop, let alone walking around the shop and then back
home again.

Finally, the time it takes to accept delivery is basically zero, because
all I have to do is open the door, take bags off them, and that's it.
