<p>Target is taking on Amazon&#8217;s <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2014/04/23/amazon-prime-pantry/">Prime Pantry</a> with its own version called &#8220;Restock.&#8221; The company announced a trial run of its new service today, which it tested with employees earlier this year. Like <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2017/06/06/amazon-discounts-prime-ebt-cards/">Prime</a> Pantry, with Restock, customers can fill a box with up to 45 pounds of loot for a flat added fee. But <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2017/05/23/target-settles-with-states-over-data-breach/">Target</a> is undercutting Amazon by a dollar, pricing their box at just $5. Additionally, Target is offering next-day service with their boxes, whereas Amazon&#8217;s usually arrive within four business days.</p>

<p>Target is able to offer its quick delivery because it&#8217;s filling Restock boxes with items in nearby stores instead from warehouses like <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2017/06/20/amazon-prime-wardrobe-clothes-mail/">Amazon</a> and customers have to put in their ZIP code before they can begin shopping. <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2017/06/02/walmart-employees-deliver-packages/">Walmart</a> also recently began utilizing its many brick-and-mortar stores as a way to compete with Amazon &#8212; using them and its employees to cut down on shipping costs.</p>
<p>Restock is currently being tested in the Minneapolis area and it has 10,000 items for shoppers to choose from. To use the service, you need to have a Target REDcard and a Target.com account. The company hasn&#8217;t said how long they expect to test the service or when they plan to launch it more widely.</p>
