Amazon Pantry: how to get free food delivery

By Tech Online Things

If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you probably already know that the subscription service comes with a slew of exclusive benefits, such as Prime Video and Amazon Music Unlimited. But have you ever tried Amazon Pantry?

Amazon Pantry offers a wide range of everyday essentials, including food, beverages, beauty and personal care items. Just fill your basket with at least £15 worth of Amazon Pantry products, and you’re good to go.

Like the majority of food delivery services, Amazon Pantry has been affected by the unprecedented demand for goods as more people shop for groceries online. The selection of stock is currently limited, with categories often showing five items or less.

Unlike other online grocery delivery services, you can still access Amazon Pantry and browse for items you need – so while you’re unlikely to be able to buy pasta, for now, you might well find that other household item you’re desperately after. It’s worth checking regularly.

Amazon Pantry free delivery

Amazon Pantry orders usually include a standard delivery fee of £3.99, but you can get free delivery if you purchase four eligible items. These items change regularly, but can vary from popular pet supplies to food cupboard staples.

How does Amazon Pantry work?

As you’d expect, ordering from Amazon Pantry is super easy. Sign into your Amazon account (remember you’ll need an Amazon Prime subscription), choose the products you’d like from the Pantry Store and add them to your cart. You can then get them delivered straight to your door, and shop as often or as little as you like. There’s usually a great selection of offers and exclusive savings to be had, too.

What’s the difference between Amazon Pantry and Amazon Fresh?

Perhaps the biggest difference is that Amazon Pantry is widely available across the UK and Channel Islands, while Amazon Fresh is only available in certain locations. Amazon Fresh also requires an additional subscription fee on top of your regular Amazon Prime membership, but boasts a far greater selection of items to choose from, including fresh fruit and vegetables, along with food from Whole Foods Market, Morrisons and Booths.
