Too tired to stop by the grocery store after work? Metro thinks it has a solution for you — and a way the transit agency might eventually make some extra money.
Metro has partnered with the online grocer Peapod in a six-month pilot that allows you to order groceries online and pick them up as you exit the Metro during the evening rush hour. Peapod by Giant has set up distribution areas at the Fort Totten, Glenmont and Vienna Metro stations. The program begins this week.
While the amenity is only being offered at three stations, Metro says that if the six-month try-out is successful it could expand to other locations in the 91-station system.
