If you’re practicing social distancing, curbside pickup is probably your new BFF. Since the pandemic began, retailers have been scrambling to get up to speed on this feature in order to encourage shoppers to keep coming back.

Plus, curbside pickup is a sweet option for shopping Black Friday from home. You’ll get the best of both worlds — online shopping plus avoiding shipping fees.

Let’s take a look at the retail stores that bring the convenience of curbside pickup straight to your car.

Remember to download the KCL app on your smartphone to keep up with deals and store news.

 

First, what is curbside pickup?

Curbside pickup is a feature many stores offer so you don’t have to get out of your car and go in store to pick up your order. It’s contactless and always free, so it’s an economical alternative to paying for shipping or delivery. Plus, you get your order sooner than if the store shipped it to you. In many cases, you can get your purchase the same day you placed an order.

Just shop online and select curbside pickup at checkout. The store will notify you over email (or sometimes text) when your item is ready and when you can head over to the store.

You’ll inform the store you’ve arrived by calling or texting a certain phone number, listed in the order pickup parking stalls in the store parking lot. In some cases, you’ll use that specific store’s app to inform them you’ve arrived.

Then you just pop your trunk and they put your order in there for you.

 

1. Sam’s Club has simple curbside grocery pickup.

Sams club store front

Club Pickup, Sam’s Club’s curbside pickup option, uses the popular process of shopping online, waiting for a notification, and heading to the store. There’s no minimum in terms of spend threshold , meaning even if you’re just trying to restock on coffee, your order will be free for pickup. Some Sam’s Club stores even have specialized Drive Thru areas to further streamline the curbside pickup process.

If you place your order before 3 p.m. and it’s less than 10 items, you can get it the same day.

Non-members shop online at SamsClub.com and pick up for free, too!

Either way, Sam’s Club workers will still need the order number and an ID, so have your confirmation email ready on your smart phone or print it out before you go.
