On Thursday morning, Amazon.com took another step in its effort to bring instant gratification to its customers, introducing a new "Local Express Delivery Option." If an eligible item is ordered between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. (depending on the city) Amazon will have it delivered on the same day. To start out, the e-commerce giant is rolling out the service in seven cities - New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, Baltimore, Las Vegas and Seattle. (With Chicago, Indianapolis and Phoenix to come soon).
There are extra charges for items delivered that way, but if you really need something and can't leave the house, this could be pretty cool.
