Busy Mommies – Try Using Seamless Web When Ordering Out

You’ve had a long (but typical) day taking care of  your little one, perhaps doing some laundry, attempting to keep the house in semi-order, and all around being super-mom.  Bath time is over, and your baby is snoozing in his crib – and now it’s time to cook dinner?!  Um – no.  It’s time to order out!  My husband has gotten me into using this online service called Seamless Web.  It allows you to order via their website and pay with a credit card (even include the tip amount you want to leave).  It’s fast, it’s easy, and it’s great because so often I realize too late that I don’t have the cash to pay for delivery!

Do you live in one of these cities?  Then give Seamless Web a try!

Do you live in one of these cities? Then give Seamless Web a try!

All you have to do is check out the Seamless Web website, sign up for a FREE account, and then check the delivery options for your area.  They actually operate in 14 cities.  If they don’t have your favorite places to order from, you can suggest them.  Currently there’s about 20 choices for my zip code (11205) – and more are coming all the time.  Again, Seamless Web is free – there is no charge to sign up, and no charge to order.  I admit I was nervous the first time I used it…. but my food arrived safe and sound!

Here's the process you can expect once you order.

Once you order on the Seamless Web website, your order prints out at the restaurant.  Then the restaurant will confirm your order, and you will get a confirmation email.  Then the food appears at your house, like it normally would – you sign the receipt and start chowing down!  As of yet Seamless Web does not have an iPhone App, but I heard from them via twitter that they are working on one.  I’ll let you know when it comes out!

Local Resource – Clinton Hill Blog

Even before I became a mom I would read Clinton Hill Blog religiously.  Now I find it extra useful because they often talk about activities and places to eat that are kid friendly / kid centric in the Clinton Hill and Fort Greene area of Brooklyn.  Here’s the link to their topics tagged with KIDS – for quick reference.  Check it out – no blog is an island, and I certainly don’t know everything that’s going on in the neighborhood for kids!
