Seems cool. Picking up from a store can be useful when it's something you're worried about sitting on your doorstep all day. Could be a great way to improve customer service as well. I'm curious as to whether the store will actually stock non-amazon products.

This is almost certainly not the main intention of this move, since a store is waayyyy more expensive than a locker and no more convenient, and Amazon has had lockers for a looong time (I can't receive packages at my house so I use the locker one block away extensively).
My friend has the opposite problem--- all packages go to the apartment manager's office. And his hours are allegedly 10-5, but he leaves early all the time. She picks up her packages at an amazon locker because the manager keeps the packages too secure.
