Not sure One Mart does charter deliveries. It seems to me more of a hybred between grocery and cash and carry. While the store is well stocked and in some cases prices a little below Riteway it is not the modern shopping experience that Riteway and Bobby's refurbed store are.

My mom came on the trip with us last year and she likes to record/figure out/bargain shop and last January One Mart had better prices on almost everything compared to Riteway. While we were there Riteway had better prices for fruit juices (for our rum punch) as well as alcohol. We had already purchased our alcohol from Caribbean Cellars but when she compared prices Riteway was almost 20% less than what we paid elsewhere. Yep, the prices at Rite Way have gone up significantly in the past few months on a lot of items and One Mart is way more affordable. A recent example that people were laughing about was the $10 for a head of cauliflower that Rite Way was charging. Rite Way placed the blame firmly on the cauliflower crises (who knew?) and said they were expensive everywhere. Which was true but the 'expensive' cauliflowers at One Mart were still less than $5... Rite Way is a last resort now for a lot of us residents.
