Amazon has introduced a new grocery delivery subscription that promises significant savings for Prime members and customers using Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT). This program, accessible in over 3,500 cities and towns across the U.S., offers unlimited grocery deliveries for orders exceeding $35 from Whole Foods Market, Amazon Fresh, and other local grocery and specialty retailers. The cost-effective subscription is particularly beneficial as it covers its monthly fee with just one delivery.

 

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Affordable Subscription Rates: Prime members can avail themselves of this subscription for $9.99 per month, while EBT cardholders can enjoy the same benefits at half the price, only $4.99 per month. Both options include a free 30-day trial to gauge the service's value.

  • Extensive Product Range: Subscribers can shop from nearly 100,000 grocery items, including national brands and high-quality organic and natural foods. This service is not only about affordability but also about convenience and quality.

  • Convenience and Flexibility: The service includes one-hour delivery windows at no additional cost where available, unlimited 30-minute pickup on any order size, and priority access to weekly Recurring Reservations for grocery orders.

  • Exclusive In-Store Savings: Besides the delivery benefits, Prime members continue to enjoy exclusive savings in Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods Market stores, adding further value to their subscription.

  • Support for Low-Income Shoppers: The program also extends a helping hand to low-income customers by offering them a significantly discounted subscription, ensuring more people can access affordable grocery shopping options.

 

Customer Feedback and Impact:

Feedback from a pilot run in cities like Columbus, Ohio; Denver, Colorado; and Sacramento, California shows high customer satisfaction, with over 85% of respondents expressing great satisfaction due to savings on delivery fees and enhanced shopping convenience. Many customers praised the quality of products, especially fresh produce and meats, and the thoughtful handling of substitutions, which greatly enhanced their satisfaction with the service.
