Interesting that they're opening with a different price model than Seattle's. $299/year and according to GeekWire their groceries are approximately 14% higher

- bluedino 13y agoI would pay a 14% premium to not have to go to the grocery store after work.
- adamnemecek 13y agoThe selection is somewhat underwhelming though.
- jmelloy 13y agoAnd has been getting worse. We've used them in Seattle for a couple years, and the prices keep going up and selection going down.
- lh7777 13y agoI still use Amazon Fresh in Seattle, but I wish there was an acceptable alternative. I'm seeing the same thing - prices, delivery fees, minimum orders going up, selection constantly decreasing. I can walk to small local groceries and farmer's markets for fresh stuff, but Amazon's still my best option for getting the boring stuff without getting in the car.
- sanskritabelt 13y agoI kind of like grocery shopping, especially if it's in a decent store that has enough registers open and where the vegetables aren't molding on the shelves and the cans aren't all dented.
- ars_technician 13y agoYeah, I can't stand to eat food that came from a dented can...
- sanskritabelt 13y agoDents in the wrong place can let in air and spoil the food inside.
