I'm constantly amazed that supermarkets in the US don't do delivery like those in the UK. Almost all will do next day delivery for just a few pounds at most. No subscription, just go to the site and order, picking the delivery slot. It works, and is massively popular.
- teej 11y agoThey do. Peapod is available in lots of markets where population density is high enough.
- drglitch 11y agoStop & Shop (Peapod), Whole foods, Shoprite, Kings, and until its bankrupcy, A&P - i.e. every major chain in NJ - all offer online ordering + free pickup and/or cheap (usually free with threshold) delivery for at least 3 years now. Its wildly popular, especially with seniors who get help with heavier items.
- ascorbic 11y agoSo why do people pay subscriptions to Amazon then if they can get it so much cheaper elsewhere?
