Does anyone here use Jet.com?

Not "have you ever used it?", but do you use it religiously like I use Amazon.com.

No.

A while back I did a fairly exhaustive price comparison for groceries and household goods, between Amazon and Jet.

My anecdotal experience was that Jet.com was almost never better priced. Couple that with the extremely fast delivery of Amazon, and it was a no brainer...

Also worth adding that their "price drop as you shop" felt like a gimmick. Yea, the price did drop as you added new items to your cart. But it was pennies. Literally, pennies.

On the popular ones (books/media), Jet internally matches the Amazon price consistently. So occasionally when they have a 30% cart coupon (last time on Black Friday), I'll buy a bunch of wishlist items from my Amazon and then reap the benefits of that 30% + Jet's Extra shopping cart "savings" for the more you add.
