Re: Strange Amazon Fresh order/delivery

@rockygems123 --for Prime members, the amount is only $25 maybe? But on Instacart, it's only $10.

@kitcat51 --this has never happened with my groceries tho. All come from the warehouse very near to me. This has just been in the last month.

Re: Strange Amazon Fresh order/delivery

I thought Amazon discontinued grocery delivery years ago.  Did they start it again, or only in limited areas, or am I wrong all together?

Good point about the fresh produce especially with the health stuff going on now--but I live in WA state and still no cases of that vile bug here--YET!! And what is being deliviered at a different times has not been any produce--just the standard regular groceries.

 

I did get those few items that needed "special" delivery-- but it took 3 people to deliver them to me and a 4th to deliver the major portion ---I got the few things I forgot from Safeway--in an hour and only 1 guy to do it!! 

 

Needed groceries for here at home and then, am leaving today for a long weekend of "glamping"😁🏕️🚙--my brother rented an RV for  trip down south by Olympia( state capitol)--I am near Seattle--- and meeting a few other happy campers and I am in charge of snacks and a few dinners--otherwise there isn't nearly as much drama!!

Does Amazon Fresh have free delivery with a minimum $100 order even if you have prime?

 

I believe that's what they require here.

 

Loved Amazon Prime Fresh food delivery, no minimum! 


@rockygems123 

 

I have Prime but when I use AMZ Fresh I still have to have a $100.00 minimum. They were offering a yearly fee for fresh like Walmart and all Fresh deliveries were free.

They do not take paper coupons but they do have a digital coupon hub or page and you must click on the coupon. They are offered by manufacturers not amazon. Sometimes the coupon will appear on the item when you put it in your cart usually in a bright color. You must also click on that . It is not automatic. Be careful that you are not clicking on a subscribe and save rather than a coupon. Sometimes it is a little tricksy I think.Woman Surprised

I have been ordering my groceries from AMZ fresh for years---with little problem and when they happen, CS makes it right. And I swear, I spend at least $100 less per order than with the grocery stores. But lately, I have been dealing with having a few items that I order, being delivered at a different time than the rest of my stuff.

And it isn't easy adding to an order anymore---so today, I have the bulk of my order coming at a set time--and the 5 items I forgot coming hours before ---but wait--it gets better---those 5 items are being delivered by 3 different people??? Not all 5 at once, but 2 people are each, delivering  1 item  and then #3 is delivering 3 items----- all showing up at the same time??? Is that not the most bazaar thing ever???  Makes me shake my head----

They are offering a lot of fresh food now through Prime so you don't have to use fresh or pay delivery. They have quite a lot of fresh food now,  but they are delivering an order often divided up.  They do frequently offer to change the time and will give you what is available. You have to go in an change the scheduling. I usually try to get my order in 2 deliveries. It works well for me. Since the sepsis I do not have the stamina so I get the order put away, rest before the next one arrives.

We had fresh food delivery through Prime for at least 3/4 of the year, they just stopped it a month ago.

 

It was great while it lasted!


@rockygems123 

 

Uh-Oh, They have not stopped it here yet. I hope not.Woman Sad
