Arriving April 7th…when to place Amazon Prime order?

[buzzrelly]

Hi all. I have never placed a grocery order using Amazon Prime but I am going to try it for an upcoming trip. I cannot choose a delivery days like some of the other grocery delivery places. So I was just wondering what day I should actually submit my AP order? Thanks!

I would do April 2, to be safe. Just write on package your expected arrival date

Prime, you should only need a few days. Prime Pantry is longer. With Pantry, I just go to the checkout page (without actually checking out/completing the order) and it gives me the estimated delivery date. That would give you a general idea.

This is exactly what I do. I put together my order and continue through to the checkout page to see what the estimated delivery date is. I like to have my order arrive the day before me, so I put in the order when the estimated delivery date is the day before I arrive. It has worked well for me the 2 times I have ordered from prime pantry.

I also do what a PP suggested, which is write your arrival date as part of the address of your resort. I put the lead name on the reservation, reservation # and arrival date along with the resort name and address.

Thanks, everyone! I appreciate all the tips since I've never ordered from them before!

Good info. Thanks!
