Seems to depend on where. I'm in the UK, and same day delivery is more and more common.

Geographic advantage. It’s a small country so it’s hard to be that far from a distribution center.

They must still be chasing growth in the UK. It was once like that in the US as well

Where I live (in a large US city) many things are same day delivery, an enormous amount are next day delivery and, weirdly, except for four-serving Strawberry Jell-O (which ships from Texas), almost everything is two-day delivery.

Not sure where you live, but my experience is completely different from yours.
