    I use the "subscribe and save" standing order from Amazon, so most of that stuff comes in a gigantic box once a month. I also get a case of toilet paper which I guess will be here tomorrow. :D I love Amazon.

    Just bought, from Amazon, two cd's. Lorrie Morgan's Greatest Hits and Terry Clark's Greatest Hits, both for under $10. Also bought a vinyl U.S. Navy Vietnam Veteran decal for the back window of our Durango.

    Bras from American Eagle. They weren't to my liking, but no problem, they included a free return label.

    I rarely ever buy clothing online, but I was looking for a long sleeve tunic top and couldn't find any in the stores, so I tentatively bought one on Amazon... . from the reviews I had to buy one 2 sizes larger than I would usually take, which I did, and it took a month to get here from China, but I'm happy to say it fits!!

    I hate it when they ship from China. I always check that now and if not fast delivery, I keep looking. I waited 2 months to get shoes that were a total different color than I ordered and wrong size. Not worth the shipping back.

    I use Amazon's subscribe-and-save thing a lot, but I usually cancel the subscription after a few months. I still buy a lot from Amazon but delivery times are nowhere near as good as they were a couple of years ago. At least half of the "two-day" deliveries are changed to a longer length of time, and some stuff comes on a slow boat from China.

    I don't think you have to be a Prime member to use Subscribe-and-Save.

    That's odd; I wonder why not? It really is handy, and you get a discount on the standing orders, too. (15 or 20% off)
