The worst thing about Sundays in finally in the process of being fixed. Amazon is slated to begin delivering packages on Sunday’s in the United States’ two biggest cities, New York, and Los Angeles, later this month, said Gizmodo.
Amazon, the internet’s largest online shopping website, seems to always have an advantage over physical stores: prices are cheaper and the selection is larger. The only downside has been that the retailer doesn’t ship on Sunday’s. That is, until now.
The United States Postal Service is pairing up with Amazon to make thousands, if not millions, of Amazon users a whole lot happier.
"Delivery on a Sunday would be very compelling for consumers. There are certainly people who decide not to make an order on a Friday because it won't get there until Monday," said Sucharita Mulpuru, an industry researcher, reports The Wall Street Journal.
So far, this set of changes will only take place in New York and Los Angeles, but that’s just for now.
Though Amazon and the USPS are refusing to discuss details of this ostensibly pricey plan of operations, there are surely many customers eagerly awaiting at their home computers to help make up for any loss in the companies’ costs.
