This is what I do. Both DH and I are immunosuppressed and take medications that further suppress our immune system, so I got in the habit of doing curbside pickups during the worst of the pandemic. After I got used to it, then I have just continued doing it. I spend a lot of time identifying substitutions or marking items no substitutions and I get what I want. When I don't, it's because they ignored my instructions and I get my money back. With my husband's many eating sensitivities, it works well for me, especially since I often have to go to multiple places to find exactly what I want. (Whether picking up or going in person - it's always been that way for me.)
