So its finally here.

They've team up with Morrisons but also offering products from 50 local shops too.

I've used Prime Now to get some fresh fruit & veg of some obscure brand which was okay, but this could be on a different level.

Anyone in London fancy giving it a go (I'm looking at you Cosimo), can't wait until they roll it out in Birmingham.

Not in our part of town for the launch. We'll take a look when it comes but our milkman delivers groceries the next morning, we have shops close by for missing items. We also have Ocado for big deliveries and I can't see us going elsewhere for those.
 
Stops one postcode short of where I live (NW6). I'll probably give it a go when it arrives but I'm pretty happy with Ocado for bigger orders.

Having said that, same-day nappies could be a lifesaver!
 
Its going to have to be cheap seeing as you have to pay for both Amazon Prime and £6.99 on top of that to use it, £162 a year. Not so bad if you already use prime or live somewhere getting to the supermarket isn't convenient i suppose though.
 
Although I'm not in the delivery area, Amazon are fantastic and they just keep getting better and better.
 
Am I the only one that thinks the Amazon Logistics guys are ok? Every delivery I've had since I signed up for Prime has been great!

To be fair to them, deliveries to my work place have always been fine.

To my current, or previous, home address however...
 
Prices seem good but the lack of perishable goods (veg, meat, etc.) make me question why I would really want to use it. As others have said, Ocado still for me.

Also, is it me or could their website desperately do with a complete redesign? Not easy on the eye at all.
 
You would have thought they'd try to undercut Ocado on price to gain some interest. As it stands they're exactly the same. £6.99/month and minimum spend of £40 :confused: Therefore, I'm not interested.
