Postmates is kinda the same but it's not limited to anything; they just go wherever and grab whatever for you and bring it to you. You can get snacks, meals, even cigarettes and alcohol. I've only ever been a delivery person through 'em though. Never actually utilized the service myself lol
We have Postmates here too but hardly anywhere uses it anymore. I think it's mostly used as a courier service for businesses now as far as I know.
It wouldn't surprise me if their range of availability hasn't changed. It was pretty small. I stopped doing it because it only had a range of like 5 miles where I would be visible to people ordering. Didn't feel like I was getting as much as I could if the range was further away considering I have a car and wasn't doing things on foot/bike.
