Life in Aroostook County moves at its own pace, but that doesn’t mean your to-do list slows down. Between work, family, and everything in between, finding time to run to the store can feel like a luxury. That’s why we created the 207 Courier Personal Shopper service — so you can cross errands off your list without leaving home.
How It Works
It’s simple. You tell us what you need and where to get it, and one of our local couriers handles the rest:
- Submit your list — Log in to your 207 Courier account and create a Personal Shopper request. Include your shopping list and the store you’d like us to visit.
- We shop for you — A courier heads to the store, picks up everything on your list, and communicates with you in real time if anything is out of stock or needs a substitution.
- Delivery to your door — Once shopping is complete, we bring everything directly to you. No waiting in checkout lines, no loading the car, no driving in bad weather.
What Does It Cost?
We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees:
- Shopping time: $15 per 30-minute block. If your shop takes 45 minutes, that’s two blocks ($30). A quick 20-minute pickup? Just one block ($15).
- Delivery fee: Our standard delivery rate applies on top of the shopping fee. For residential customers, in-town deliveries start at $7.99.
- Your groceries: You pay the store’s normal prices. We provide a full itemized receipt so you see exactly what was purchased.
For a typical grocery run that takes 30 minutes plus an in-town delivery, you’re looking at around $23 total for the service — and you get that time back for yourself.
Who Is It For?
The Personal Shopper service was built with our community in mind:
- Seniors and those with limited mobility — No need to navigate icy parking lots or carry heavy bags. We’ll bring everything right to your door.
- Busy parents — Got kids at home and no time to make a store run? Send us your list and we’ll handle it while you handle bedtime.
- Business owners — Need supplies, office snacks, or materials picked up? Our business accounts make it easy to track spending and keep receipts organized.
- Anyone having a rough day — Sometimes you just don’t want to leave the house. We get it. That’s what we’re here for.
What Can We Pick Up?
If a store in the area sells it, we can probably grab it for you:
- Groceries — Weekly staples, bulk items, specialty ingredients
- Pharmacy pickups — Prescriptions and over-the-counter needs
- Hardware and household supplies — That one thing you keep forgetting to pick up
- General errands — If it’s on a shelf somewhere in The County, we’ll find it
Real-Time Communication
One thing that sets our Personal Shopper apart is that you’re never in the dark. Your courier can message you directly through the app while they’re shopping. If the store is out of your usual brand of coffee or they have a great deal on something you might want, they’ll check with you before making any changes. No surprises when the bags arrive.
It Counts Toward Your Rewards
Here’s a bonus: every Personal Shopper order counts toward your 207 Courier loyalty rewards. That means you’re earning progress toward free drinks and free deliveries just by letting us do your shopping. Five deliveries gets you a free drink at our partner coffee shops. Ten gets you a free delivery. It adds up fast.
