Amazon?

[Doofy]

We definitely get our money's worth with Amazon Prime because of our remoteness. We also just subscribed to Wal-Mart + to also get free shipping. Wal-Mart also beats Amazon's prices on most of the items we use the most.

Our local stores are about 150% higher than the national average on everything.

I hope you will update us on how that Walmart + works out for you. I signed up for that and mostly have just used it for gas discounts. We did order a flashlight recently thru Walmart+ that was cheaper than Amazon by $11 and had free delivery. I am under no illusion that Walmart aligns with my "values" any more than Amazon does but I would like to do my small part to encourage competition for the benefit of the overall marketplace. One nickel at a time.

I order lots of stuff from amazon, and have had amazon prime for many years. Always pays for itself. We also watch amazon prime streaming alot.

but, if they keep raising prices like there doing, i may cancel soon. Dont care if its for their movies and shows there producing. Enough already.

I too quit Prime because of Besos and his politics.

It doesn't often occur to me to check walmart.com, I find the layout of their website to be kind of clunky and not always as informative about the products as Amazon. The times I've used Walmart the order arrived promptly, probably ought to try them more often. Didn't know about Walmart+.

I neither know nor care what Bezos' politics, or what Walmart's "values" are.

A month ago we ordered a 35# bag or Purina Puppy Chow from Wal-Mart for $30 and $6 shipping. Amazon wanted $35 and $35 shipping (none was Prime).

With Wal-Mart +, same 35# bag of dog food, 6 jars of Jam, case of TP and a case of Paper Towels. This all shipped the next day with free shipping. I would still be waiting for Amazon to even think about shipping (even with Prime).

Sounds good. Thanks!

I too quit Prime because of Besos and his politics. I try to use Amazon now for their reviews, and buy elsewhere.
But I admit to slipping up a lot, they do have some good stuff at good prices......

At least Bezos isn’t a con man and gives his customers true value for their purchases.

I order pet food from chewy's. Free shipping if over a certain amount.

None of the pet food stores in town have been carrying the can food our pooch eats in any bulk quantities. Usually just a few cans on the shelf.

And chewy's is about $.60 a can cheaper. And about $5 a bag cheaper on the kibble.

I order a months worth at a time and it's on my door step in a couple days. I'm always over on the free shipping minimum.

We tried Chewy's but they don't ship to Alaska.

In Alaska, you should be feeding salmon and moose meat.
