Uber Eats now delivers office and school supplies

<p>You might not have to brave crowded stores to get your child's back-to-school gear. Uber Eats now offers (https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/uber-partners-with-office-depot-to-deliver-office-and-school-supplies-nationwide-301605438.html) deliveries of office and school supplies from roughly 900 Office Depot and OfficeMax stores across the US. If you need a flurry of binders and pencils for your little one's classes, you can have them delivered during your lunch break.</p><p>Not surprisingly, you'll avoid the delivery fee and receive a 5 percent discount if you're an Uber One (https://www.engadget.com/uber-one-subscription-140045273.html) subscriber who spends at least $15 on a purchase. Uber didn't say if other office supply shops would be available, but did note this was the &quot;first.&quot;</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>It may seem odd to order school material through the same app that handles your takeout meals. However, Uber has gradually expanded its deliveries to cover goods ranging from groceries (https://www.engadget.com/uber-cornershop-grocery-delivery-143454216.html) to pharmaceuticals — like DoorDash (https://www.engadget.com/facebook-marketplace-doordash-delivery-200437073.html), Eats is becoming more of a general delivery service. In theory, you'll pick Uber Eats over rivals like Amazon Prime Now (https://www.engadget.com/2014-12-18-amazon-prime-now-test.html) whenever you need something shipped in minutes, not hours or days.</p>
