Collect Amazon purchases from your local Post Office.
Amazon is launching a click and collect service at 10,500 Post Offices across the country.
Shoppers can avoid the dreaded 'missed delivery' slip in the run-up to Christmas by sending online purchases to their local Post Office.
You'll need ID when picking up your package, while you'll also be charged for delivery unless you're and Amazon Prime member.
Amazon said the new arrangement would make picking up deliveries much more efficient. Just last week the Royal Mail warned that Amazon's delivery service presented a threat to its own delivery growth.
[SPOTLIGHT]Last month Amazon launched a same-day delivery service of its own, with plans to test out unmanned delivery drones in Cambridge.
