Getting an order of essentials is about to get even easier thanks to the expansion of the Walgreens Same Day Delivery service, which will now run on a 24-hour basis to offer goods on a 24/7 basis.
The brand is offering more than 27,000 items that can be delivered in as little as one-hour around the clock to help shoppers easily access items when they need them most. The service expansion will be available in a range of markets across the US where consumers can place an order online or via the brand's app to take advantage of the speedy delivery option.
Group Vice President of Digital Commerce Stefanie Kruse spoke on the expansion of the Walgreens Same Day Delivery service saying, "Walgreens knows that taking care of health and wellbeing isn’t exclusive to business hours and that needs can pop up at any time of day – that's why we’re always looking for ways to enhance the customer experience with convenient and trusted solutions."
