Has anybody ever used Amazon Prime Now?

I wish it was available in my area...
Right now I use Subscribe and Save for everything but meats, vegetables, milk, etc....


Everything else comes in two large boxes once a month.

We use it on an almost weekly basis. I've ordered everything from groceries to lightbulbs...and even underwear...because I wanted to be able to say I ordered underwear and had it delivered in two hours.

It usually takes less than an hour and only once did it take close to 2 hours. You can schedule your two hour window too. So if you want it for cooking dinner at 6PM, you can order that morning and request the 4-6PM delivery window. Sometimes delivery windows will get full, so you can't always wait until 3PM to pick the 4-6PM window.

My pregnant wife works from home and watches our toddler, so Prime Now has been great. We can order groceries for the week and all I have to do is stop by a meat market on the way home to grab whatever else is needed to complete the meals.

HEB, a local store here in Houston, just created a similar service, so we may try that a couple times. They provide a much wider variety of products, where Amazon Prime Now can be somewhat limited.

The downside is that I often times have a beer while I'm shopping there, so I would lose that.

You can always have a beer while you wait for it to be delivered


And yea, it suggests a 10% tip.

I use it all the time! It's better than fighting crowds at stores and saves time. Prices on Amazon are usually better than stores anyways.

ETA: I live in Houston where we also have grocery delivery and uber eats/ door dash. You never have to leave the house.
