The promotion offers reductions of up to 20 percent on everyday essentials is available at its 19 Just Walk Out technology powered stores.
Amazon Medium Free Range Eggs are now 88p, 500g of Happy Belly Penne are 40p, 500g of by Amazon Green Seedless Grapes £1.57. There are also reductions on products from big brands including Hovis (800g) now £1, Uncle Ben’s Rice (250g) now 88p and 80 bags Yorkshire Tea now £1.60.
It was reported in August that Amazon has put the brakes on the expansion of its UK checkout-free convenience stores, due to sales falling short of expectations and fit out costs being multiple times higher than with a standard location.
According to a report by The Sunday Times, the US giant is understood to have walked away from talks on dozens of sites for Amazon Fresh stores, and has stopped its search for more locations.
Amazon’s announcement came two days after Nisa announced a multi-million pound investment in own-label brand pricing to help shoppers tackle inflation and cost-of-living crisis.
