AI HACK FOR FAMILIES: Shipt x Perplexity

It was Saturday night, and our babysitter had just cancelled. Classic, right?

Instead of calling it a night, we decided to turn it into something fun — an impromptu family movie night. But this time, I wanted to make it extra special… so naturally, I turned to AI for help.

My New AI Superpower: Perplexity + Shipt

I’ve been experimenting with the Comet browser’s Perplexity integration with Shipt, and honestly? It’s a mom super power.

Here’s how it works: you give it a simple prompt, and it builds your entire order for you. I typed in something like “Create a movie night shopping list with snacks, drinks, and cozy items” — and within seconds, it filled my cart with everything from popcorn and candy to blankets and even a few healthy snack options.

Zero Stress, All Fun

No more wandering the grocery store aisles at the last minute. No more endless scrolling through delivery apps. It literally does all the thinking and planning for you.

All I had to do was review the cart, input my payment info, and hit order. That’s what I call double-time saved.

The Perfect Ending

A few clicks later, everything arrived. We set up the living room, grabbed the snacks, slipped into pajamas, and curled up together for the perfect cozy night in.

If you ever find yourself in a pinch , whether your plans get canceled or you just don’t feel like grocery shopping, try this AI hack for your next movie night. You’ll thank me later.
