Balancing work and family is no easy task. Especially if you live in Lagos, and have to face Lagos traffic everyday. After a long day at work, you’ll still have to prepare something for your family to eat, and all that’s on your mind is – take a bath, eat and sleep. When will you have the time to grab some groceries, and prepare a good meal for your family? You can now order your groceries online, and have them delivered to you, either at home or in the office. Jaramall.com is an online grocery store with a range of groceries and household items. You’ll find items like tomatoes, vegetables, fruits, baby food, drinks and beverages and other household items on the site. How Does it Work? Like any other e-commerce site, all the items are organized into categories, where you can add products to an online cart, and checkout. For now, deliveries are made only on the Lagos Island. Here’s how to order (as stated on the site):

Click on the product you want to buy.
Click on the ‘Add to cart’ button displayed below the description of the product.
A message would be displayed below the Menu tab telling you that your addition of product to the cart was successful.
Click on the shopping cart link in the message displayed.
Your shopping cart list is displayed and a form is provided for you to fill.
You can choose to continue shopping or proceed to Checkout.
If you choose to checkout, click on the Checkout button at the bottom of the page and fill in the required details on the form.
You can register an account before proceeding (by creating an account you will be able to shop faster, be up to date on an order’s status, and keep track of the orders you have previously made). At this point, returning customers can just fill in their email addresses to continue.
Fill in your personal details e.g Name, Email address etc to create an account.
If you do not want to create an account, click on the ‘Guest Checkout’ option and proceed.
Fill in your billing details and move on to the next section.
If your billing address and delivery address is the same, check that option and proceed directly to delivery method. You can also add comments about your order. (Delivery is free for all items)
If your billing and delivery addresses are different, enter your delivery address and proceed.
Select your preferred payment method and once you have agreed to the Terms and Conditions, you can click on the ‘Continue’ button.
A message is displayed across your screen telling you that your order has been processed.
You can then relax and await your package!
