We are used to seeing same-day Prime delivery in local shopping malls. For now, this only applies to orders from PacSun, GNC, Superdry, and Diesel, but Amazon says it will soon offer same-day delivery from 100% Pure.

In and around Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Las Vegas, Miami, Phoenix, and Seattle, the service is limited. If you are located near any of these areas, you can now browse through and order from local mall stores on Amazon.

Amazon doesn't have a lot of stores right now. If you need some vitamins or a pair of jeans in a pinch, it could be useful. It is likely that Amazon is trying to build upon its fulfillment business by delivering products for other stores. Online stores can give customers the option to buy a product with Prime's perks, and now Amazon's letting physical shops attract more buyers by piggybacking off of its services

In the past, Amazon has delivered from local stores. Amazon started offering one-hour delivery from local markets in select cities in 2015. Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh are listed in most areas in the one-hour grocery delivery service.

Prime members can get free same day pickup from certain stores. You have to spend at least $25 in order to get free shipping.

There have been reports about Amazon plans to pick up and deliver goods from malls. It was reported that Amazon would be using Flex drivers to deliver packages from the mall. You can rely on an Amazon delivery partner to pick up your orders.

Sarah Mathew, Amazon's director of delivery experience, said in a statement that the expansion of Same-Day Delivery to include beloved brands delivered directly from nearby retail locations is just another way to offer customers even greater selection.
