Google Shopping Express now available to Northern California shoppers with overnight service

Attention Northern California shoppers -- Need a quick birthday gift from Toys"R"Us but there isn’t one nearby?  Or heading out on a camping trip tomorrow and need some last-minute gear from REI?  Google Shopping Express is introducing convenient overnight delivery to shoppers throughout Northern California - from Fresno and Porterville in the south to Eureka and Crescent City in the north.  This new overnight service complements Google Shopping Express’ growing same-day offering which recently expanded from the San Francisco Bay Area to West Los Angeles and Manhattan.

Overnight delivery coming throughout Northern California

Overnight service is available today in East Bay cities including Berkeley, Concord, Danville, Dublin, Fremont, Oakland, Pleasanton, Richmond, Walnut Creek, and more.  We’ll be rolling out Google Shopping Express’ overnight service to most of Northern California over the next few months, from the California-Oregon border to cities like Fresno and Visalia in the south.  Customers will even be able to get products delivered to places like Big Sur and Yosemite.  Visit our website to see if overnight delivery service is available where you live today.

And if we’re not yet in your area, let us know and we’ll notify you when Google Shopping Express becomes available in your neighborhood.

Fast, convenient delivery from stores you love

With overnight delivery from Google Shopping Express, customers are able to shop from some of their favorite retailers on one site (google.com/express) - from well-known brands like Target, Walgreens and Whole Foods Market, to San Franciso-based favorites they might not have convenient access to, like Blue Bottle Coffee, Dodo Case, PhotoJojo and Timbuk2, among others.  

Simply place your order by 7:00 PM and you’ll receive your delivery the next day.  You can also easily shop while you’re on the go through our Android and iOS apps.  Once you’ve ordered your items, we’ll work with major shipping carriers to deliver them from the store to your doorstep.

Shoppers in Northern California can order from a range of stores including Blue Bottle Coffee, Cole Hardware, Costco, DodoCase, Fry’s Electronics, Google Play, Guitar Center, Hassett Hardware, L’Occitane, Nob Hill Foods, Office Depot, Palo Alto Sport Shop & Toy World, PhotoJoJo, REI, Smart & Final, Staples, Toys"R"Us and Babies"R"Us, Target, Timbuk2, Walgreens, and Whole Foods Market.  We continue to add more stores to the service, so stay tuned.

Same prices as in stores

With Google Shopping Express, there are no surcharges or mark-ups, products cost exactly what they do in stores.  You can also take advantage of in-store discounts and accrue loyalty points by providing your store rewards card information.

For a limited time, we’re also offering shoppers six months of free, unlimited deliveries.*  And shoppers in our new overnight delivery area can also enjoy a free $10 to spend on us.**  Happy shopping!
