I just had this in my inbox:

Their food delivery service (at least for Munich) will be out of operation beginning December 14th.

Not only in Munich, all other places in Germany that have been covered by Amazon Fresh.

So, Amazon Fresh ceases to exist in Germany.

I also have 4 supermarkets within 1.5km of my apartment, which is certainly within walking distance as I don't have a car, but the reason for a delivery service is...

I have no car as well, but I own a bike. I put the crate on the back 😉. The only thing is that I live on the 3rd floor without an elevator.

Come on, you know the answer to that, get a Getränkeservice to deliver them 😉

For example, Anderl Getränkedienst delivers in Gilching: https://www.getraenkedienst.com/muenchen/de#Anderl
For people who are not from/around Munich, they also have partners delivering to these postal codes: https://www.getraenkedienst.com/liefergebiet

I am aware of Getränkeservices.

I liked Amazon fresh, because I could

a.) get food and beverages in one delivery.
b.) could ask for time slots like "between 20 Uhr and 22 Uhr".

I will change to Rewe Delivery beginning December.

Same here. And we schlep the mineral water crates and other stuff up. Hoping it keeps us fit longer. :lol:

My local Edeka has good deals on beer every week. There is always 1-2 brands for Helles on sale and 1 brand of Weißbier. I typically save 6 to 8 Euros on a crate. I don’t think that Getränkedienste offer this as well, but I might be wrong. I’m not willing to pay €20 for a crate of beer.

Be glad you aren't a wine drinker like me then. :D

Ah, the good old days... Maybe the Coca Cola sold locally still contains real cocaine? Who knows...
