Uber's Expanded Delivery Services: From Prepaid Items to Robot Reindeer

Uber is expanding its services to include prepaid item pickup and delivery through its "Store Pickup" feature, allowing customers in over 1,500 cities and towns across the U.S. to send a courier to pick up their purchases from local stores. The packages must be pre-paid, have a value under $200, and weigh less than 30 lbs. This move comes as Uber aims to capitalize on the holiday shopping season and follows the recent inclusion of the company in the S&P 500.
