I hate shopping in crowds - which is why I go first thing in the morning. <br /><br />Yay for getting your Mom's order so quickly! Yeah, if you can get it that quick with regular shipping, Prime would be a waste. I just rarely ever need anything that quick.B.E.

I use the free shipping option and wait for whatever to arrive. <br /><br />Exactly. It's not brain surgery. Derp.B.E.

If ...I hate Hate HATE to shop, online or real-time. If I didn't go shopping with Mom (a shopaholic; torture for me, but she drags me along) I'd order everything online from a checklist.<br /><br />A few days ago, Mom (who doesn't have internet) wanted to buy a bowling ball bag for my brother's birthday, but there were none to be found in town. She asked me to order it online for her.<br /><br />I went to the quickest spot to find anything: Amazon. Ordered the bag, checked the slowest-but-free shipping box, and settled in to wait the two weeks predicted.<br /><br />It came in two days.<br /><br />Who needs Prime with that kind of service?Deb Salisbury, Magic Seeker and Mantua-Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01513482264195697450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076293789081887442.post-82398322893921023042017-07-11T10:11:58.977-05:002017-07-11T10:11:58.977-05:00Yeah...maybe I'll look.

I earn points so a lot of the ebooks I buy are free. I'm still paying for Kindle Unlimited. I don't get free books to read that often. I should probably revisit that expense.<br /><br />Plus, dude!

If this fluffy kitten didn't have the good sense to keep up with what he signs up for and can't keep his password, he deserves what he gets.<br /><br />A little common sense, please. I don't feel sorry for him at all.<br /><br />As for the best deal I've gotten, there are too many to count, but one of the best deals I ever got from Amazon was for some necessary gizmo for our A/C system. We paid a third of the price we paid only the year before from a local store. It was a high dollar item so while I was glad we got it so cheap the second time, that local store is in my black book for price gouging--not to mention the thing went out in a year.
