An Amazon Prime subscription costs $119 a year for free, fast shipping on everything you buy. Walmart's new Jetblack service reportedly costs $50 every month -- but you won't have to do the buying. It's a personal shopper service where you'll simply text a request (presumably to a human being) to have Walmart fulfill your needs, by purchasing the item and shipping it to you -- generally same- or next-day delivery, according to the announcement.
It's launching today in New York City, starting in Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn, but only via invitation. There's a waitlist you can join at Jetblack's website.
