Disney Food and drink on a budget

Hey everybody.
I am staying onsite for the first time in 9 years, and i've just a few queries, with the development of technology and apps, i was just wondering how people go about getting food and drink to take back to their rooms instead of buying it on property, as it can obviously be expensive at times, i don't drive in Orlando, so i know there is Uber Eats, and one or two others, i will be with my daughter who has learning difficulties, so it's not always that easy to jump in a taxi and go to a supermarket, i've looked at Garden Grocer but they seem expensive.
Also do Disney let Uber Eats deliver to the resorts?
So many questions
Just need snacks and drinks for the room, and trying to keep costs down.
Sorry about the long post.
And thanks in advance

You could try a personal shopper? They generally cost around $20 per delivery.
You can pre-order what you want and have it delivered to you once you arrive.

Try fairytalepersonalshopper.com I think the price has just been been increased to $20 but they shop at Walmart/Target etc so prices of the goods are cheaper than Garden Grocer

Try Garden Grocer. We used them a couple of years ago and they deliver to Disney hotels. Disney will store your order if you haven’t arrived when it’s delivered.

If it's just snacks, then take as much as you can with you that you know your child will eat.

If it's groceries, I think Walmart also do click and collect now, so order online and collect it by drive through.

You could also walk from Disney Springs/take a taxi up to Winn Dixie in LBV, or take a taxi to Publix opposite the outlets. But by the time you do that I expect it will be equivalent to Garden Grocer anyway.

fairytaleshopper posts on here.

We're having some magic bands delivered to them then to our villa for arrival. Its a really easy thing to arrange.
Just contact them and they will provide an address for postage and confirm the price.
They will then bill you closer to the time of delivery and they will then deliver to wherever you are staying.

Might need to check with them if they deliver to Disney though.
