Prime is adding ads to their streaming service
(sh.itjust.works)
I think I might cancel. I'm not watching ads and I'm not going to pay the extra $3/mo to opt out. I don't know if I'd end up paying more than the subscription cost in shipping though....
I wish I could just get Prime shipping and drop the video service. I may still drop the whole thing.
Nothing quite like paying an annual fee to ensure that stuff you can’t be bothered to go to the store for are handled by a multitude of people who are systematically abused by their employer.
I don't know where you live, but around here stores only carry what most people buy. If you want something other than plain vanilla, you have to find it online.
Then take a look at the manufacturers website and see what retailers they use.
Many stores will also let you order items for pickup that they don't normally stock at your local location. Ask a clerk or again, check their site.
Have you ever actually even tried to do this? All you can tell from the manufacturers website is where you can find a company that carries any of their products. Oh, you want that specific scent of antiperspirant? Good luck on calling all this retail stores that don't actually have staff anymore. If you're truly lucky you can search walmart.com for it and then target.com for it maybe you'll find it. Honestlywalmart.com is about their only competition but pricing there is completely at the whim of their own privateers.
I have actually, quite a bit. Finding products and store's that sell them really isn't that hard.
The only thing I use amazon for is a general catalogue of items; once I find something I'd like, I buy it elsewhere.
You got hit with a bunch of down votes but it's not incredibly hard to avoid Amazon, it's just a little less convenient. Of course, it's going to depend and vary based on where you are located.
Odd... This reply didn't show up (in the thread or in my notifications) until just now.
