Are you an Amazon Prime member who loves scoring a great deal on groceries? If so, we’ve got good news for you.
Amazon Fresh has recently announced new ways Prime members can save money on groceries. From exclusive discounts to a new private label brand called Amazon Saver, you could save more than ever before by shopping for the exact same things — and perhaps a few new ones.
Here are the newest ways you can save on essential groceries on Amazon.
Learn more about the secret ways you can save money on the popular e-commerce site.
Deeper Exclusive Discounts
Amazon Prime members can already take advantage of 10% off hundreds of grocery items. But now, Amazon’s introducing some serious savings opportunities — online and in store — in the form of deeper exclusive discounts at Amazon Fresh.
Deals will be available on over 3,000 grocery items. These new Member-exclusive discounts include:
- 25% off over 1,200 rotating grocery and household essentials from Prime-exclusive brands
- 50% off between eight and 15 grocery items like proteins, fresh produce and pantry essentials (on a weekly rotation)
- 10% off more than 1,700 items from Amazon’s private-label brands like Amazon Fresh, Amazon Kitchen, Amazon Saver (new), and 365 by Whole Foods Market
Other grocery essentials, like snacks, frozen foods, pastas, and beverages, will also benefit from these exclusive discounts. This means more savings for current — and new — members on private-label and national items.
New Brand
Adding to its already existing line-up is Amazon Saver, the retailer’s newest private label brand.
It’s marketed as a “no-frills brand that will help grocery budgets go further” — and for good reason. Whether you’re shopping in-store or online, most Amazon Saver items cost under $5.
Amazon Saver is available to all customers, not just Prime members. But if you are a member, you also benefit from an additional 10% off grocery essentials like crackers, canned foods, snacks, coffee creamer, lunch meat, and condiments.
As this is a new label, it only includes a handful of products right now. Eventually, you should be able to find over 100 grocery items on the Amazon Saver line-up.
Improved Online Shopping
There’s even more good news for those who primarily shop online. Amazon has simplified their online storefront to make it more intuitive and user-friendly.
It’s also rolling out some new personalization features designed to make the online experience even better.
Features include:
- Ability to add previously purchased grocery essentials to your shopping cart.
- Option to set up recurring reservations that let you get groceries delivered at the same time each week (also available for grocery pickup).
- Intuitive “shopping zones” that categorize items by themes like seasonal favorites, weekly deals and exclusive members-only deals.
- Dedicated “digital aisles” of groceries sorted by category for easier shopping.
Other Perks
With Amazon Fresh, customers can shop online and get their groceries delivered to their doorstep, or they can shop in person at a nearby location.
This lends a certain ease to grocery shopping that’s hard to find elsewhere — at least at these prices.
Other features worth noting include:
- Grocery delivery: Gain access to unlimited grocery delivery in over 3,500 locations nationwide on orders over $35. The grocery delivery subscription costs $9.99 monthly (or $99.99 yearly). Eligible stores include Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods Market and some specialty retailers.
- Cash back: Prime members who use their Prime Visa card can get 5% unlimited cash back on eligible purchases. This is available online and in stores (Whole Foods Market and Amazon Fresh only).
