Rich with Kids Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I can't stop ordering! It's too easy with Amazon Prime. I guess I've just missed my UPS guy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawneinfl Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Maybe we should start a support group. Seriously though, I try to let things "rest" in my cart for at least 24 hours before I hit the order button. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich with Kids Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 I just signed up for the free 1 month trial. So, whatcha get?

Deidre in GA Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 just don't combine it with 1-click shopping. then we'll definitely have to arrange an intervention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen500 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Sign me up. LOL. At least now I can order one item at a time, instead of getting up to $25. And keep me away from the gold box deals just for me. (I don't really mean that.....) What I really need is another bookshelf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Ah, yes. My UPS guy is here so regularly that my boys dressed up as him for Halloween. (Not as "a UPS guy", as Charlie) By the way, we have also discovered that friends and family (if you're ok with them logging into your account as you) can also use the Prime. Mine just put in their own shipping address, which then requires you to put in new payment information so they just put in their own. (Of course, the email confirmation still comes to me - I just forward it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaniceO Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I am also an Amazon addict. I live overseas and don't have access to Target or Book Stores that have books in English. I think I order from them at least once a week. I try to save it up so it's just once a week, but sometimes I can't help myself. My DH gets the mail at work and sometimes he's not very happy with me. I just play innocent though. "I have no clue why we received another Amazon package honey. I know we just got one yesterday. It must be a mistake."

MommyX8 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Amazon Prime is awesome! One time I ordered a case of Newman's Organic "Oreos" since I had no idea what could possibly be in a regular one. The case came and they left it at the bottom of my driveway in the freezing rain. It was wrapped in plastic, but out in the weather for a couple of days. I called them and the told me to keep those and they would replace the shipment. The next day the replacement arrived. So, two months later my subscription comes up again. We are still swimming in cookies so I put it off another 2 months. Then on that next shipment, the box comes in destroyed. It was even missing a package and UPS maintained that they had no idea how that happened. Anyway, I called Amazon and again, they sent me out a replacement case of cookies. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyGrace Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 It's about more than just books ladies!!! I have had such good luck ordering from them, with the fast shipping and good prices, I'm starting to order other things from them. I ordered a new iron on Sat night and had it on Tues afternoon-and that was with Super Saver shipping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidsHappen Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Yes, all books must sit on my wish list for at least one week before purchase. Books that are pre-planned purchases waiting for release are bought at the book store. I usually don't buy something I can get from the library until after I have read it and made sure that it needs to be part of my permanant collection. I can almost always find books the cheapest at Amazon but I do belong to a book club that offers many new releases for about half price including shipping. Let me know if you are interested.

HappyGrace Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 if the library has it, I don't buy it. (Unless it's something I get from the library and after reading it I know it would be good for future reference and get major use in our home.) One time reads I only get from the library. And our library system is really good, thankfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
