Uber’s Corner Store delivery service will bring essential everyday items to your door

At present the service is available Monday to Friday, 9am to 9pm in some areas of Washington, DC If the trial proves a success, it’s likely to roll out to other cities in the US before too long (Uber generally doesn’t hang about when it comes to expanding its service). As with car rides, there’s no cash or tipping involved: your credit card is charged and Uber pays the driver.

Similar services like Amazon Fresh and Google Shopping Express are available in other parts of the US, and it seems the quick delivery of food and essentials is set to become another tech-led boon for many of us in the near future. Are we on the cusp of a golden age for lazy, disorganised or just plain busy people?
