Amazon next day is back - but they are rewarding Prime customers who choose 'no rush' delivery

Next day delivery on non-essential items has returned for Prime customers, but Amazon has also launched an incentive for shoppers who choose a "no rush" delivery.

The company had prioritised the delivery of essential items like food and other staples during the coronavirus pandemic, however it has now announced it will return to normal.

The Daily Record reported that the shopping giant has hired somewhere in the region of 170,000 new employees since the beginning of March to cope with a surge in demand.

All eligible orders are now available for next day delivery, however, the company has added an incentive for customers who can opt for a later delivery slot.

If you choose the new 'No Rush' delivery option at checkout, you'll be given a £1 credit on orders made over £10.

You have to be an Amazon Prime member to benefit, and the scheme is open until May 14.

The company are also asking people to shop responsibly, and avoid stockpiling.
