I even use prime for my groceries now....no option to tip...same day

Delivery...this is now core amazon and not whole foods or fresh....no tipping the shoppers or drivers, it just shows up... Yesterday I went to the grocery store and realized I forgot my wallet....came home and ordered my list on amazon. Prices also pretty good

I wonder how many people DON'T have Amazon Prime?

We just got rid of it. It was incredibly convenient for quick and free

Wifey costs them big time on shipping

I though I saw were they have over 150 million memberships...**
UTPr0sim • 01/10/26 09:00 PM ET
Yep, about 200 million**

Off topic, but I do like that some players will use extra padding on...

They're called Guardian Caps... they're actually mandated in...
JoesterVT • 01/10/26 09:02 PM ET
I've got it. I just ain't logging into it for something that should be on
Hokie CPA • 01/10/26 08:25 PM ET
I get that. For me it's just like changing the channel to watch it. Nothing
HokieGator • 01/10/26 08:38 PM ET
Oh wow...I see now.
JoesterVT • 01/10/26 08:28 PM ET
It's like TV until it starts buffering. I HATE watching live sports on
Hokie CPA • 01/10/26 08:54 PM ET
Buffering?
JoesterVT • 01/10/26 08:57 PM ET
Netflix pauses for buffering all the time.
Hokie CPA • 01/10/26 09:00 PM ET
That's your connection, not the sevices
JoesterVT • 01/10/26 09:07 PM ET
TIC reply, but CPA might not find it humorous.
EDGEMAN • 01/10/26 08:33 PM ET
Yes, it was TIC...but I'm honestly trying to understand the issue
JoesterVT • 01/10/26 08:49 PM ET
I kind of get it. Hulu, Prime, Peacock are things you pay extra for.
HokieGator • 01/10/26 09:03 PM ET
Not only free shipping, but most stuff will be on your doorstep in 2 days
EDGEMAN • 01/10/26 08:21 PM ET
I don't. I'll just wait for the highlights of the Bears playoff loss.
KCHokie2 • 01/10/26 08:20 PM ET
So far, the Bears' failings have been pretty spectacular
JoesterVT • 01/10/26 09:30 PM ET
I currently have it, but have gone long periods without it in the past.
MP4VT2004 • 01/10/26 08:12 PM ET
I don't. don't order enough to justify the $15/ month. I'll grab the free
VermontHokie • 01/10/26 08:12 PM ET
I just checked. We've placed 40 orders in the last 3 months. **
HokieGator • 01/10/26 08:25 PM ET
In the early days, I would jot down what I wanted to order, then place...
EDGEMAN • 01/10/26 08:35 PM ET
Yep. Just this week I placed 3 orders...100 disposable coffee cups, a new
HokieGator • 01/10/26 08:42 PM ET
Well, after I ran my mouth below and said more people have Prime now....
