Amazon has now opened up its one and two-hour delivery service to beer and wine in the Austin area, including some local offerings. The company's Prime Now app and website let people skip trips to the store and get items delivered for a fee. After purchasing Whole Foods last year, it also began offering free two-hour grocery delivery in Austin for Amazon Prime members. People can also shop on Amazon.com or get items from certain local restaurants delivered... The beer and wine service will also be available starting Wednesday in Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio.

Amazon’s delivery service complies with local regulations, which is why it’s not available everywhere. What do you care if people have alcohol delivered in accordance with local statute?

Do not give Bezos your money! Never forget the abysmal treatment of their employees. And a portion of their profits are used to attack our President!

Cigarettes too? Highly doubtful. They’re too pure and righteous for that. Rolling papers, pipes and little screens? No problemmo.

Unless your FedEx delivery man is Muslim then it won’t get delivered.

I make a point of not ordering from Amazon but last time I ordered something from what was supposed to be a reputable site, sent it in an Amazon box with Amazon tape. Ticked me off.

A good cultural candidate for South Park to incorporate into one of their next season’s shows.
