For the time being, Amazon Prime members may get free grocery delivery via the company’s Fresh service for purchases of $35 or more. Even for individuals who live alone, it’s a sensible and reasonably priced minimum purchase need. However, from February 28th, individuals will have to add a lot more products to their basket if they do not want to pay an additional fee to have their purchase delivered to their door. According to The Verge, the e-commerce giant has changed its Fresh groceries website to state that only purchases totalling $150 or more would be delivered free within a two-hour window by the end of next month.
Those between $100 and $150 will be delivered for $4, while orders between $50 and $100 will be charged a $7 service fee. If a customer’s purchases total less than $50, they must pay a staggering $10. Because the Fresh service is only accessible to Amazon Prime users, who increased its yearly charge to $139 from $119 last year, it will become a significantly more expensive choice by March.
