Saturday I ordered about $100 of groceries at noon and my order was delivered at 1:30pm I actually like doing business with Amazon. Most big companies get too big and their service eventually becomes terrible. That hasn't happened yet with Amazon in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The record isn't so good. It's not nearly as easy as they think. yeah, They are probably in over their heads with this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucker someone in and bleed them for about 6 months then they leave. I heard on the radio this morning they might be cutting soon, they apparently overhired during the panny and now are overstaphed. Maybe that's why (and 1m+ people passing from the virus) are why we have a shortage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got to walk through their 800,000 sq ft facility and there are only 20-30 people working. The rest is automated conveyours and robots running around.

oblong Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 I use them for small impulse purchases. Like today I noticed I was down to one bar of soap. I added a 12 pack to my cart. I also wanted som u shaped spikes to help secure an outdoor screen. Added that too. I have a stack of $25 credits from my employers health plan for being active so I paid $3 and they will come tomorrow. I’ve used them to buy teabags. My wife yells at me for it. But she will not get the right kind and I got a box of 500 of the English breakfast kind. She gets the shitty flavored ones. I’m home all day in the cold basement working so I go through 3 a day. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smr-nj Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 😁. Yeah…. Yesterday, I ordered those things you need to open up jars…. I swear they used to be a bunch of them in this house, but I couldn’t find one the other day, my hand strength just ain’t what it used to be. Lol. It was very easy for me to get to the $25 limit to get free shipping, because I always need cat litter. 🐈⬛ …. And Love Grown power O’s (chocolate), because I can never remember to look for them in the store. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I would go to rip a sqaure or two off it NEVER ripped on the perforated edge. They are a total mess.

Deleterious Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 DeSantis and Florida giving $450 child credit to help fight inflation. Because nobody in Florida has ever taken an economics class I guess. I am storing 5 gallons of gasoline in my garage to lend my neighbor in case his house catches on fire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are paying people in California to "fight inflation" too. I am generally in favor of helping people when they need it, but giving money to help fight inflation will just make inflation worse.
