Is Prime Pantry worth it?

Anonymous
Still trying to figure out how Prime Pantry works. I'm having a hard time filling up the box and by the time I sit down and think about it I realize I could have just run to CVS and grabbed the few items I need. Just wondered if anyone used it on a regular basis? Maybe it's better for families where you need to buy a lot of basic toiletries and household items at once?

I find Prime Now is easier. If I had a bigger family, I'd probably go with Subscribe and Save over Prime Pantry. If you're a Prime member, it can be cheaper to put together an order that has free shipping and avoid the $5.99 shipping fee associated with Prime Pantry.

I really hate running to CVS and the grocery store on weekend mornings. Amazon options are very convenient to me.

Didn't even know about Prime Now and I use Amazon all the time. Thanks for the heads up. I will check it out.

I stopped using Amazon when they started sending me things from Walmart without letting me know and giving me a chance to cancel.

You have to tip with Prime Now?

I have not found Prime Pantry very useful. Not a big enough selection, high prices, and even though I constantly have credits to cover shipiping, the shopping model is just annoying.

A $5 tip is added in as recommended. You can adjust it, but I never do.

There was a coupon for $10 off your first order. Code is 10primenow. Not sure if it's still good.

I happily tip because the convience has been worth it. DH frequently travels and I've used it for random items on weekday nights. Gift cards for teachers during the holidays, printer ink, an electronic item back ordered during Christmas for a present but available on prime now. It's been great to add on that gallon of milk and food extras so I didn't have to run to the store.

The only time I made Prime Pantry work for me was when we moved cross country and it was nice to have the household staples delivered the day after we arrived so we didn't have to run to Target as soon as the movers left. We brought just enough stuff to last the first night.

I have a hard time filling up the box too. It's easier just to run to target after the kids go to sleep.

The third party that Amazon used ended up using Walmart to buy and deliver what we ordered. There is no way to change that or know ahead of time.

And, NP not PP, but there are a lot of people who don't want to shop at Walmart.
