I'm at a show in Chicago right now and they had a funny bit of audience interaction in the middle of the first act that's an ad for Prime Now. They asked who uses it, I indicate I do, and they ask me what I get from it. Told them everything. They asked for specifics and I was like, idk, groceries, computer parts. Everything, always. It would be like asking "what are things you buy ever?"
Prime Now is a staple of my life, man. Hahahaha

I checked the video games section just now in Chicago, they have weird stuff on there. Like a PS1 memory card. Or an N64 memory card. Why do they stock those in the local warehouse?!
I've used it once mostly just to try it and it's kinda neat. You get to see where the driver is at on a map like Lyft. They also started a different same day delivery that's by 9PM or some such, haven't used that yet.

Bro, great heads up on prime now, just ordered stars wars box set and gummy bears for movie night, gonna be here in two hours...game on
Yeah I know but the dude is coming pretty far to get to me and there's no way around a $4 toll from the Amazon warehouse to where I live so if Amazon doesn't give him gas or toll money I'd feel like a dick. I mean, if I'm going to tip $5 bucks for the pizza guy to drive 10 minutes I should probably tip a guy driving 45 minutes to bring me video games I guess. Personally, I feel like Amazon should be taking care of it.
Oh and I'm pretty sure the minimum is only $15 where I live.
What? Where did you see this?
I imagine since it's a delivery service other than ups or fedex or oncall people feel they need to do this?
Not that I'm against it just Genuinely curious.
They are essentially pizza delivery drivers. You tip through the app. It suggests a certain amount for tip automatically. I assume if you don't tip well a few times you might get blacklisted.

Damn, apparently my area got Prime Now earlier this month. Shame I don't have a smart device to try it out with though. :/
If you've got a Windows PC there are Android emulators available that you could use.

Man I don't see why this service isn't in my area. I live an hour south of Seattle, and Amazon's a Seattle company. Not to mention that I live right next to an Army base. I mean it's a license to print money. I can tell you right now that if this had been a service I could of used when I was in the Army, I probably would of used it several times a week; and I know that many other soldiers would feel the same. I just don't understand why Amazon only does this is the really big cities, when a military base essentially is a big city in and of itself, at least as far as commerce goes.

Ah, I gotcha. Cool of you to take that toll into account, I'd hope Amazon would compensate for that but any time you'd think a corporation would do something nice for the employee they don't.
