I believe this is the eventual move a lot of brick and mortar stores are going to make to compete with Amazon. I've been told by a Best Buy manager their end goal is to turn a majority of their stores into fulfilment centers.

Not sure if this is across the country, but it was interesting to see the apparently-quick turnaround during Lockdown at some local stores here.
