3. Dining & Groceries: Beating Food Inflation
Grubhub+ Is Free (Seriously, Activate It)
For years, this was a “limited time” offer, but it is now a permanent ongoing perk. Prime members get a free Grubhub+ membership (normally $9.99/month). This gives you:
- $0 delivery fees on eligible orders over $12.
- Exclusive discounts and 5% credit back on pickup orders.
Action Step: You must manually link your Amazon and Grubhub accounts to activate this. If you haven’t done it yet, you are likely paying delivery fees for no reason.
Whole Foods Market Discounts
If you shop at Whole Foods, downloading the Whole Foods app (or the Amazon app) and scanning your “In-Store Code” at checkout is non-negotiable.
The Perks:
- Extra 10% Off Sales: Any item with a yellow sale tag gets an additional 10% off at the register.
- Blue Signs: Look for blue “Prime Member Deal” signs for deep exclusive discounts on seasonal items.
- 5% Back: If you use the Prime Visa card, you get 5% cash back on these purchases.
