π Amazon Grocery Subscription Service
News of the Day
Amazon has introduced a new unlimited grocery delivery subscription for Prime members and EBT cardholders in the U.S., covering 3,500 cities and towns. The subscription is priced at $9.99 per month for Prime members and $4.99 per month for EBT card users. This service, which was initially trialed in Denver, Sacramento, and Columbus, offers free deliveries for orders over $35 from Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods Market, and select local retailers. The plan includes benefits like one-hour delivery windows, unlimited 30-minute pickup for any order size, and priority access to slots for weekly grocery deliveries. Subscribers also receive a 30-day free trial. This move positions Amazon in direct competition with Walmart Plus and Targetβs delivery services, both of which have similar order minimums and pricing structures. Additionally, Amazon has recently phased out its "Just Walk Out" technology in favor of the Dash Cart that scans products placed inside.
