Listening to this made me nostalgic for the days when I was a part of a pre-order co-op. It's essentially the same thing. Even the video footage was almost identical, with the kids helping out. I loved it. Thank you for posting it. One comment to make, though, regarding your desire to not shop at local supermarkets/markets/shops, keep in mind that these local businesses employ your neighbors, your children's friend's parents, maybe local teens, etc. Amazon probably does not. Yes, the bottom line ($) is really important when you are trying to pay bills, but your community is also important. They are the ones who rally around when times are tough. Just a thought.

I love Azure. My drop is 5 minutes from my house and it delivers 2x/month, so I feel very blessed. That said, a couple additional tips: don’t assume everything is cheaper. I check prices when I’m at stores and compare the price per oz. or per lb., depending on the item. Costco is sometimes cheaper for the same item, if that is an option for you. Also, if you drive far for your drop, factor in the cost of gas when comparing prices, as that is becoming a bigger expenditure every day. And lastly, some drops charge a delivery fee and some don’t, so just be aware of that as well when determining if it’s worth it to you.

Mistake #0 - missing out on making new friends during the pick up process. Be friendly, you might meet a local bee keeper or somebody who growing / raises locally.

The jars are useful for items you use up quickly but remind your viewers that they are not airtight. Flour in the gallon, if you make bread daily ... yes. Corn kernels in the gallon if you don't eat a lot of popcorn ... no.

For the same price as one of those gallon sized jar and lids you could buy a gallon size jar of Mt Olive whole dill pickles and get the jar and lid for free.

I had no idea this type of service was available! This is so exciting

I store my sourdough starter in a quart jar and pour into a bowl to feed to make bread. Now, thanks to you bringing it to my realization, I will use a half gal jar (which I already have) for both. One less dish to wash. Thanks!

I usually watch videos about everything scratch-made and wonder why I have never come across your channel before now. I was led here by the Azure standard website suggested videos and I am really glad I came here. I have never used Azure standard before but have always wanted to try them. Thank you for showing your five biggest mistakes because it made me realize that I need to plan things out a little better. I was only placing a relatively small order thinking it would give me a chance to see how everything works. Also, I would be on my own to pick things up because my son and husband were not going to be available to go with me. I am disabled and would not be able to carry heavy things to other people's areas and continue to get back in line until the truck is empty. I could definitely help out some but my mobility is very limited. Also, our cutoff date is in three days and I have noticed that there are already a few things on my list that may not be available. So I have decided to postpone my order for now and place a larger order later when one or both of my guys can come with me. Thank you so much for your video and I really am looking forward to becoming part of the Azure family. May God always Bless you with good health, safety, and prosperity in all you do.

I’m addicted to filling my azure cart but have yet to actually send the order! I even have a drop right by my house! Love the company and this video! :)

[stellerkags]

I am just starting to consider using azure. Thank you for these videos!

[alyssaroyce]

I’m in! I started using Azure with our community drop a year ago when everything got crazy and it was an absolute lifesaver! Not just with the happenings of the world, but also welcomed our third baby so it made getting good food for my family SO MUCH EASIER! Thank you!

I love Azure Standard. The quality is amazing. My drop is 30-45 min away depending upon traffic, we have 1 drop per month. Each month I find myself converting grocery store stuff to Azure items. I recently purchased 25lbs organic golden beets grown in USA. I diced, blanched and froze them for use. They are so good.

[Razimela]

We just had our first Azure drop recently. It was so nice everyone worked together and the products are fantastic. Still trying to figure out ordering and planning in advance so helpful

[baglady]

I'm in, first time viewer! Very good info! Thanks!

The company that makes the coconut aminos also makes a really good sweetener that my kids love on pancakes. It’s the coconut nectar. Really yummy. It’s thicker than syrup and I think my kids like that as well as the taste. We get it from azure.

[megantroutman]

I didn’t think that they did a drop near me, but it took seeing your giveaway for me to look. There’s one in the next town over! Looking forward to ordering from them.

I feel very blessed that we have an Azure drop 5 minutes from my home. They have so many amazing products. I'm in👋

[homesteadbythehighway]

😊Thank you for sharing. I watched this video before I purchased from azure for the first time.
I have now ordered 3 times and wanted to rewatch your tips now that I have been through it.

My only tip I would add…your truck may not come when it is scheduled when you pick you stop. Mine has never come Monday night at 6:45 like it says. It has come on a wed and Thursday in the middle of the day. SO THE TIP…if you work full time have a back up plan as to who can go get your order for you🤦‍♀️

[rebekahveitia]

We just picked up our first Azure order today. So exciting! We have a long drive too, but I think it's going to be worth it. I'm in!

[sophiakuznetsov]

I have been looking at ordering from azure for a while! Great video!
