Amazon is taking the convenience factor to new levels.
The brand just revealed it will be opening a check-out free grocery store in NYC, a welcomed concept for the Land of Long Lines. Now, it appears Amazon amplify the holiday spirit by selling live Christmas trees.
According to Fast Company, customers will be able to order their Amazon trees up to seven feet tall and have their pick of types—Douglas firs, Fraser firs and Norfolk Island pines. They'll be able to start making their selections in November and will receive their family tree (which can run up to $115) within 10 days of their purchase. As per usual, Prime customers can enjoy the added bonus of free shipping.
December is a nutty time for everyone thanks to the holidays. This new offering could be a sigh of relief when hunting for toys at the newly opened FAO Schwarz or trying to get your place decorated, but there's still something special about going all Clark Griswold and hunting for the perfect live tree (which you'll probably scoop up on your nabe's busiest street). Now, it's as simple to order a tree as it is to order Seamless.
