9. Curbside pickup is an alternative.

But again, it depends on the health of the store workforce, and even that might disappear as essential workforce becomes decimated.
A local Trader Joe's had an employee who was either a Trumpster or a Q head who infected two other co-workers due to a conspiracy addled certainty that s/he just had a bad cold...store is shut down for two weeks now.

It all boils down to the small group of powerful cynics - "objectivists" - amongst us who push social selfishness and profiteering as virtues throughout the media we depend on for modern life. Cynics who get their LULZ pwning the public with mis-information, because it's fun - as well as profitable to knock a desperate and increasingly suspicious population down to a more manageable number, not to mention culling out any expensive taker types.
Conspiracy theories and their attendant fear mongering are just another tool these assholes use to separate people from any sense of adult logic or even just basic species survival tools - generosity and mercy - they may still have. Sorry for the rant, but I see too many "important people" strutting around and implying we can't trust anyone, that everyone is corrupt and has their own agenda - influencers who have to drag everyone down to their own hateful level because that's where it's cool and "real".

On edit - sorry for the rant. don't mean to hijack the thread.
