Prime has gone from guaranteed two days or less to we'll get it to you when we get it to you for a long while. Prime just guarantees you'll be ahead of people who don't pay for prime. It's fine if you can get it for free or through a family plan. But when you don't have it you do not miss it once you remember stores still exist and 99 percent of purchases don't matter if you get it tomorrow or in a week

Seems to depend on where. I'm in the UK, and same day delivery is more and more common.

Geographic advantage. It’s a small country so it’s hard to be that far from a distribution center.

They must still be chasing growth in the UK. It was once like that in the US as well

		>They must still be chasing growth in the UK. It was once like that in the US as well Where I live (in a large US city) many things are same day delivery, an enormous amount are next day delivery and, weirdly, except for four-serving Strawberry Jell-O (which ships from Texas), almost everything is two-day delivery. Not sure where you live, but my experience is completely different from yours.
