Another thing Amazon does to get more money from you

I’ve been trying to stay as frugal as possible during the pandemic. I’ve been strictly buying only what I need and only during the pandemic I’ve been buying everything for online. I’ve been using Amazon for a lot of my purchases, and I noticed that they’ve been doing this thing where they have a thing at the bottom of the page that shows you a list of items saying it’ll be cheaper to get it now. Yes, the price is lower, but the thing comes in 4-5 days, and it’s because they have a prep facility close to you, which is safe. But the price for the item to come the next day is more expensive, but the item has to come from a farther away place, which puts more risk on the employees. I just thought it was a huge red flag and wanted to warn everyone.
