Amazon is 100% more convenient for most of us when it comes to shopping - my daughter does a six month delivery of cleaning supplies, toilet paper and paper towels and she said that has made her life a lot easier.

Amazon also has an amazing selection of products to choose from, far more than the local stores, whose shelves seems to be emptier and emptier these days (California so there is a huge shoplifting problem). For me, it is the utter convenience of not having to go out.

I also get deliveries the same day - there is a distribution center near where I live so I suspect that may be the reason. Was out of the coffee I like and so was Target - ordered in the morning from Amazon and had it in the afternoon for this morning.

My sister also reports a lot of same day deliveries in her area - but then she too lives near a distribution center.

We do this with many items that have no expiration date.

We sometimes get same day delivery or overnight delivery for smaller items. We like one of Costco’s coffee bean versions, and my wife failed to notify me that we needed to buy more.

I placed an order to Amazon, and we got overnight delivery for the coffee.
