I know I'm not the only one...Amazon is unreal, but my wife gets a little silly with it.

-Yoga Pants (wife)
-Quest Bars (wife)
-Gold Bond (dad)
-Dog Food (gillie)

Been there, done that. Had to learn to stop it. Limit yourself to ordering once a week. It will make you stop and think before you place the order if you throw things in the cart all week and then look at it at one time. It might shock you how much you'll take out of the cart when you look at it all together.

 

[anon_aawvduncd4ay0]

Two golf gloves, the old Fathers Day gift card cash in.

 

[parrott]

For delivery tomorrow:
- Grey Addidas golf shorts for me
- Bathroom scales for her
- Gel ice pack for both of us

Very exciting.

Thanks, LC!

Foam floor pad for the kid
A box of sharpies
A copy of On Cooking for the library

 

[Wodie sloot]

6 pack of baby wipes

I'm about to get the subscribe and save shipment so we will get a lot tomorrow.

And LC, I try to do that unless it's something I need right away.

 

[LadyCat92]

Prime just makes everything so easy, which is what Amazon wants. "Oh look, a zaghetti spiral slicer. Definitely need one of those." Click order now and have it tomorrow or the next day. Doesn't seem like a big deal. Start throwing all those spontaneous orders in a cart and sit on them and then open it up and see you have 20 items and they add up to $200-300 and all of the sudden you're like, "Holy touch, what in the hell? I must have been drunk. Why did I order a zaghetti spiral slicer. I'll never use that."

 

[anthonys735]

Pack of co2 cartridges and a new rear tire for the bike. I typically order on need but dont feel like I go overboard. WS on the other hand...

 

[wildcatsboston1984_rivals]

It's truly ridiculous how much shopping I do on Amazon since I got Prime. If I can't find something in person I just go on there to buy it because I can probably get it cheaper than elsewhere and then don't have to pay shipping. Plus I have an Amazon Visa credit card so I get like 3x points for buying on Amazon compared to buying elsewhere.

 

[Dennis Reynolds]

Amazon Store Card. 5% statement credit on anything purchased on Amazon. No brainer. Apply, then lock and load it, set it to autodebit and forget about it.

 

[HymanKaplan_rivals48997]

Arrived in the last week:

Two new bike tire tubes.

Doggie Dremel

3 dozen pink Callaway golf balls (for the wife)

A brick of Zig Zag Cut Corners Classic Rolling Papers

Amazon Basics wireless mouse

 

[RacerX.ksr]

Sounds to me like some of you are just making impulse buys. My wife and I have our shopping urges under control and can, at times, go for an entire day without an Amazon shipment. #learnselfcontrol

 

[Free_Salato_Blue]

Doggie Dremel?

 

[HymanKaplan_rivals48997]

Yeah, Henry has really dark nails, and the last time I had them trimmed it was traumatic as hell.

Bleeding, sore, I was a mess. So I bought a grinder to trim them down, round them off.

And I really don't care what anyone thinks about it.

 

[CatManDoo_rivals376463]

Nothing today, but tomorrow:

• Toaster
• Ninja (no GYERO) blender
• Mileposts - Alaska travel book

On deck: Crock Pot

Dremmeled my dog(chocolate lab). Would snip the tips down where I felt comfortable not getting the quick and then finish with dremmel.

She was good people.

 

[H. Lecter]

Now I see why everyone has a pocketknife! Gotta be handy opening all those boxes

 

[BlueBleedingMarine]

Deals of the day.........can't beat them

An ice maker kit for a refrigerator.

 

[29er]

I'm expecting a pair of Shimano XT Disk Brakes for my Mountain Bike today.

 

[Ron Mehico]

Wow you guys buy stuff everyday? You're like the modern day version of those old house wives and the home shopping network. We bought some curtains or something from there around 3 months ago. I got some hair products from there about 5 months ago as well. Guess we need to pick it up.

 

[WettCat]

Please, everyone, tell me more about what you bought! I'm just a simpleton Pubix shopper but just this weekend bought a bottle of ketchup, some potatoes, shrimp and some HORSERADISH! Please tell me more!!!

 

[mashburned]

Amazon sucks now, tbh. You're getting refurbs and factory seconds and you probably don't know it.

 

[BBdK]

When you have a Paddock level **** ton of money, you can just buy whatever you want. Highly recommend one-click ordering so there are no second thoughts or going back.

Can't wait to get home and see what awaits today! When you order so much **** all the time, you lose track of what's coming or what you even ordered and it's like opening a Christmas present to yourself.

Pretty sure I have some contact solution coming, which is going to be :fire::fire::fire:

Dude everything in this world economy is coming from the same place. If you pay top dollar at a retailer like Macy's or something you're the one that doesn't know what's going on. There are tee shirt factories sewing together Nike shirts, then sewing together Under Armour shirts, then sewing together Champion shirts. The only difference is the stamp they print on them at the end. Go check out Alibaba, it will open you're eyes to the world economy if you're smart enough to see the trick. I can go to Alibaba and buy 50 Yeti coolers for $40/piece and have my companies name put on them, ship them to Amazon and then sell them $150 each. Ito would save you $150 and make me about $60 when it's all said and done.

 

[mashburned]

Exactly, so go to the source, or a closer source, than amazon. Why would you buy an under armour shirt on amazon when you can go straight to under armour? Because you pay an up front premium so you feel obligated to.

I purchased a whole box of beefy T's from amazon last year. They were sized wrong from the factory. Some had different length sleeves. Two of em were fn Disney work shirts or something. Bitched at amazon, per usual, and per usual, SEND IT BACK FREE OF CHARGE AND WE'LL SEND YOU MORE!!!. Not. Went to Hanes.com where they were having a ridiculous sale and got geniune beefs sized right and in any color I wanted.

They run a pretty sketchy business based on memberships, impulse buys, and lazy *** consumers....and customer service!!!! Which is actually pretty nonexistent. They jkst have a return policy looser than Walmart and let's not even talk about their free products for reviews nonsense. Such a sketchy place.

As soon as everybody under the sun have free shipping, they took a hit. That was the main thing they had going. Now the entire internet retail will operate like amazon once that Shippass catches on.

Have y'all tried to cancel your amazon? That's a hoot, too. Like dealing with TWC.

 

[BBdK]

You aren't very good at Amazon.

 

[WettCat]

My wife used to get all excited when she "won" something on E-bay. Won? Had to constantly remind her that she simply elected to pay more for those gold plated Tory Burch toenail clippers than any other foolish hen. She didn't win ****.

I can't tell you how many I've told people at work that same thing. OTOH, I'd be a lot wealthier if I had only purchased things I needed. I'm the pot and the kettle.

 

[We-Todd-Did]

I price check a lot of the things I buy through Prime and they are pretty much always close.

If a hundred bucks a year keeps me from having to physically go somewhere or interact with actual people every time I need something, I'm good with it.

 

[jwheat]

Just got my Trump 2016 shirt in today.

Clicking "End Membership" sure is tough.

 

[mashburned]

Ok, try it. Dare you.

 

[cricket3]

I've done it multiple times when I use to sign up for a free month to order things.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Quest bars FTMFW.

Last order:
-Cedar planks for fish on the grill
-Orange Bitters to add to the bar
-The Curious Bartender: The Artistry and Alchemy (By far the most expert bartending book I've read. 0% of cocktails can even be made with a full bar, a bit annoying, where the hell do I find elderberry?)
-Men's Health 15-minute workouts (Used for like 6 bucks. Always good to get a one or two 15 minutes of activity in a day. Pretty good for anyone looking to stay active)
