The Las Vegas Division of the Rail Explorers offers the following options:
ARE GROCERY SUBSCRIPTION BOXES WORTH IT? June is National Fresh Fruit and Vegetables Month, so let’s explore one popular way to get more fresh produce into our lives: subscription- based delivery services like Full Circle and Imperfect Food. Are these services actually worth it? Do they save money and provide what they promise? Here’s what the research turned up. CAN THEY SAVE YOU TIME? The Verdict: Yes, without a doubt. Subscription-based grocery delivery services appeal to consumers because they save time. With somebody else doing your grocery shopping, you don’t have to think about when you’re making a trip to the grocery store this week. Someone else is doing it for you! THE SOUTHWEST RAMBLE This is an exhilarating 4-mile downhill pedal-powered ride from the station to the park at Railroad Pass. Bring a snack and a drink to enjoy during the 30-minute break at the railside picnic area. Then, enjoy a ride back to the top of the hill in one of the museum’s historic trains (included in ticket price). SUNSET RAILBIKE RIDE The Sunset Tour is a spectacular ride from the Nevada State Railroad Museum to Railroad Pass. Coast downhill under the vast desert sky in the cool of the evening as the sun sets behind the River Mountains.
FIRESIDE TWILIGHT Discover the magic of the Southwest Ramble at Twilight! The rail-side picnic area features personal firepits and Adirondack chairs. BYO marshmallows!
Next time you’re in Boulder City, check out Rail Explorers and don’t forget to tour the train museum while you’re there!
IS THE FOOD QUALITY GREAT? The Verdict: Yes, but it depends on your area. You have a higher chance of getting better grocery items if you buy from an organic grocery box service, like Imperfect Foods or Farm Fresh to You, since these companies work closely with your local farms. Keep in mind that some services, like Imperfect Foods, are designed to deliver fresh foods that are a little “imperfect” in size, shape, or color to help prevent food waste — but, as a benefit, it’s more affordable! However, we’ve found some services, like Full Circle, will prepackage their boxes from warehouses that may not be local to you, so do a little research before picking one. All in all, we’ve been pleasantly surprised to find that these boxes aren’t such a bad idea. Consider looking into it if you’re tired of the weekly grocery store time crunch!
Plus, some services even offer meal kits if you can’t decide what to make. There’s no argument here — these services definitely save you time.
CAN THEY SAVE YOU MONEY? The Verdict: Sometimes, since it depends on your existing shopping habits. If you find yourself making impulsive purchases while strolling down the aisles at the grocery store, then a set (but customizable) weekly list of delivered groceries might be a great way to stick to your budget. Unfortunately, not many grocery subscription-box delivery services offer nonfood items like toilet paper or cleaning products, so you may still have to make a trip to the store every once in a while.
