June 22nd, 2009 | By Rebecca Thorman | 20 Comments

We officially launched Alice.com in beta today! Now you’ll never have to run out of toilet paper – or shampoo, toothpaste, diapers and more – ever again. We’re all extremely excited and we hope you are too. Here are seven ways the Alice service makes your life easier:

1. Get free shipping
Alice offers free shipping with every order.

2. Manage and automate your life
Alice is a service, similar to Netflix, that makes it very easy for you to manage and automate this entire category of goods so you never run out.

3. Use budgeting and advanced planning tools
Alice let’s you plan your purchases in this category, helping you budget and focus your spending, and avoid impulse purchases at the store.

4. Take advantage of competitive pricesYou won’t overpay for the tremendous convenience of Alice.  In addition to always free shipping, Alice’s prices are competitive with the traditional mass retailers.

5. Get coupons applied automatically
Alice has a completely new couponing system.  We automatically find and apply coupons for you on thousands of products, making it easy to save even more without any extra effort.

6. Save time and eliminate store trips
Alice saves you time by eliminating store trips so you can do things that do matter.

7. Find all your favorite brands
Although just getting started, Alice’s product assortment is very broad, and we plan to continue to both major brands and the specialty brands you can’t always find on the store shelf.

You can read more about the secret sauce behind all these goodies from our President on our Company Blog.

We promise to provide you an easy way to manage your household essentials online. After creating a free account, you can easily select and save all of your favorite products, ordering only the items you need. To ensure you never run out, Alice.com keeps track of items and reminds you when you’re running low and need to reorder. Each shipment is bundled together in a single ‘Alice’ box, delivered directly to your door.

So go ahead and get started now. Signing up is free and easy and only takes a minute!

    Congrats on the official launch. Know the team has been busting it hard to bring this together. Best of luck Alice.

  6. This is pretty cool. I love the features here. Timing the items for when I’m likely to need them it pretty cool. The budgeting section will probably be of great use too.

    Congrats, guys! Placed my first order this morning, saved some money on things I needed to get from the store anyway, and now the store will come to me! Can’t wait to get my first Alice package.

    My partner and I have been waiting for something like this for a long time. We’ve always dreaded those weekend Target runs, and now they’re history.

    We were able to find all of the products we already use (plus a few more) at the same or better price than we already pay. The site is well laid out, easy to use, simple to navigate, and checkout was a breeze.

    Very well done. Thanks Alice!

    This site needs to give people the ability to have a Hot Nuts subscription.

    Good luck!

    I’m so excited! I’ve missed your fine retail offerings since the demise of JF and am so glad to be allowed back in on the action. Congrats on the launch – this looks great!

  12. Tiffany says:

    So excited about your launch! My account’s set up and I’m ready to dig around and see what products you have. Already found a few I love! Congrats to the entire Alice team.

    Dear Alice, thank you for helping me get a little bit closer to my wonderland (aka no more house chores / boring shopping) http://web-poet.com/2009/06/24/alice/

  14. Pete says:

    OK, so I’m excited about the launch – especially enjoying the “JF-ish” touches. :) (Congrats!)

    But does this mean the end of your blog’s Wednesday giveaways? :(

  15. Thanks so much for the kind comments everyone! And we’ll still be doing giveaways often, Pete :)

  16. Laura says:

    This site is wonderful!! I just placed my first order and cannot WAIT to never have to go to wally-world again!

  17. Barb says:

    Where is Alice now? I cannot connect to the web site! I have tried mutliple ways – from the blog site, from a Springwise article – directly to the url – nothing is working. I am anxious to see what all the buzz is about!
