Can anyone help me figure out what I did wrong here...

I wanted a copy of Moosewood Simple Suppers cookbook. Went to amazon, found a used copy for under $10, clicked purchase and now it is being shipped.

 

For $22 and $13 shipping!!!!!!!!!

 

(ETA: I see now I somehow ordered the paperback copy with two day shipping instead of the lowest used price and $3.95 shipping. Maybe it was the one-click setting? That stinks. This better be one great cookbook!!)

Have them call you and see if you can get a refund. You may catch them in time. If not, still have them call and explain what happened. They can send you a return label and you can send it back and order the one you wanted. Amazon is always great to work with.

Were you able to cancel the order? I hope so!!!

 

I disabled my One Click settings on Amazon. It's way too easy to make the mistake of clicking the "buy" button instead of the "add to cart" button!

 

Yeah, I disabled mine years ago after a similar incident.

I hope you were able to get it cancelled!  One day when I checked my email I learned that about six superheroes were headed our way via amazon, I didn't sign out of amazon and the boys had some fun.  Luckily I was able to cancel the orders in time, the boys and I had a nice chat, and now I am sure to log out!

Especially when you fall asleep with your Kindle Fire in your lap!

I dislike that the only way to buy music and ebooks is by one-click. I always have to go in and double check my settings.

You have to admire that enterprising spirit, though!

 

I just saw on the news the other day a story about a toddler who managed to buy a car while noodling around with her dad's phone. Her parents have since employed a password.

I saw that too, the family plans to renovate the car for her 16th birthday. Sweet story.
