There are plenty of #FirstWorldProblems out there, but one of the most prominent in Hong Kong is undoubtedly grocery shopping.
Engaging in trolley wars with other time-starved shoppers, or having to navigate your way right back to the entrance of a supermarket just to join the checkout queue, are some of the many challenges thrown up by a chore we hate but simply cannot avoid.
Right? Wrong!
For anyone who values their time and sanity (we hope that’s all of you), honestbee is the answer.
honestbee has recently buzzed onto Hong Kong Island, and it also operates in Singapore, Taiwan and Japan. With completely free delivery on orders of HKD250 or above as well as a range of stores to choose from – including Great Food Hall, Fusion, and Gateway, among others – there’s really no reason for you to be tortured by the weekly shop ever again.
To celebrate the launch (read: get you completely hooked), honestbee is offering all first-time users HKD150 off any order of HKD350 or more with coupon code HKCOCO150, valid until April 30.
honestbee offers the same prices as in-store almost across the board, with the very few discrepancies clearly indicated when you click on the individual storefronts via the honestbee website.
You can always be ensured of freshness and quality, as the service provides trained shoppers to personally pick out each and every item for you. In other words, you can be sure that your avocado will not arrive too mushy or not mushy enough.
In addition, the service allows you to pre-select a replacement item if your item is not in stock, or your personal shopper bee will contact you and suggest one.
Did we mention honestbee deliver the same day within a ONE-HOUR period specified by you? These guys are clearly drinking a different kind of coffee to everyone else on the planet!
