Re: Amazon Prime warning

[ Edited ]

LOVE PRIME.   I also thought I didn't need anything that fast and then once my sister convinced me to get Prime many years ago,  there was no turning back.  I order a lot from Amazon so it's worth it to me.  I RARELY have issues with the delivery timeframe.  When I have, I've called them and they either are able to correct or sometimes give a $5 credit if they can't.  For the most part I get my deliveries within a day or two.  LOVE IT.

 

Edited to add...   I've also watched some Sports on Prime TV that were not available on other TV services.

If the supplier you order from is not Amazon, then Amazon makes the product available to you through an outside source who is contracted with Amazon.

Fir instance: Whole Foods

There are several supplements I order thru Amazon but they are shipped by the company (Andrew Lessman).

Clothing is often shipped to me by other than Amazon (and returns through other are more complicated).

Anaxon has their own delivery trucks so they are the ones filling my Amazon lockers which are located here on my property (apt. Complex).

I have YouTube music and I’m very pleased.

Amazon music is still used by Alexa when I want to hear a special song while in the kitchen.

YouTube services is a monthly rate for me.

I have Prime and I'm embarrassed to say that we get deliveries almost every day...or at the very least several times a week. 

 

Most of our deliveries come from the actual Amazon delivery truck.  I might have gotten a few things in the mail.

You must not have Amazon Prime Video or music.  I also store all of my photos and videos free on amazon photos instead pay paying apple for more storage.  We use that quite a bit and would hate to give it up for $11 a month. Plus other perks of Prime.

We've been Prime members since it came to be, we love it. The fast shipping and delivery is the reason. We live in an area with limited shopping choices available and this saves me tons of time searching for a product. I also have an Amazon delivery on most days but in winter I change and ship to my DH's office since our private road can be treacherous. If your delivery is later than expected I wonder if one can report it to Amazon? I have not felt the need to do so but unless Amazon is aware they cannot react to correct it.

Don't be embarrassed!   I think saving time is important. In the past, I had to go to a supermarket twice a week.  Where I live now, I go to local farm stands once a week for fresh produce, and get cleaning products, tea, coffee, etc delivered from Amazon.  

I only go to the supermarket every 7-10 days.
