My primary concern with pre-paying is the lock-in for the year. With Prime Pantry/Subscriptions (at least in NYC/TriState), amazon bumped their prices up pretty significantly over the last year. Anecdotal case in point is perrier water 24pk which was $15 then $18 then $22 and went as high as $28. Costco has it for $16 regular and $13 on sale. Instacart works in costco btw, so delivery convenience is negligible.
Further, i am wondering what the source of these products is - at least when you're overpaying in whole foods, you generally know its a local/high quality produce - if this is anything like fresh direct, the quality of items are often worse than local corner bodega.
