and i buy so much on Amazon its ridiculous, the neighbors have to wonder why i'm getting packages every other day

but for example a tensioner pulley for my truck at O'Rileys is $75 to where on Amazon from AcDelco its just $45, thats quite alot cheaper
have you checked ebay? I'm even finding ebay cheaper than amazon on a lot of things for my hobbies so you have to figure out if it's worth saving a few bucks to get it maybe a day or two later than Amazon or pay a little bit more at amazon to get it in a day or two.

can you believe Target now (or soon) will charge you $10 to break into your house to deliver your order? :wink:

I'm even still amazed people think it's worth $10 extra to have restaurant delivery.
part of me hates Amazon for putting some businesses out of work, but it's so convenient to not leave your chair
AND now you get free 1-day shipping? you don't even need prime?

it's very hard to beat

$3 off $3.01+ purchases on Ebay.

PROMO3

Good for the next 3 days.
and with almost all ebay promos, usually won't work if transferred (only if you get the invite directly from ebay) so be aware of that.

I used to buy/sell on ebay a decade ago, but i rarely even look on there anymore tbh. Amazon has won that war in my book.

These $3-off ones they do every few months. I've never gotten an email, and never have had them not work.

Wouldn't want anyone to "not bother" with some free shit.
Just try it guys.

Depends what you're looking for.
Amazon may end up being double the price on certain things.
New things, yea Amazon is much cheaper.

yes, it doesn't hurt to try,

i'm just trying to hold off any "that code didn't work for me" replies. Those don't work replies happen all the time in one of my hobby forums where someone shares an ebay code and it doesn't work unless you got the email from ebay directly.

I recently decided to go carless and reduce my carbon footprint.
So, I subscribed to prime , take advantage of the fast, free shipping.

But I'm beginning to think that good Ol' Jeff is addicting the masses and laughing all the way to bank.

Is that danger I smell in the distance?

These $3 ones have historically been for all.

I still get rocks and little trinkets on there (especially when they have promocodes running around!) and then I forget about them b/c my brain is tuned into Amazon shipping times. Then they come, and SURPRISE! It's like I got myself a present.

For those who have Amazon Prime or looking to get it. If you have EBT or Medicaid you can get it for $5.99 a month. I do and its a huge difference :) You will have to take a pic of your benefits card and upload it and the rate is good for a year. after that you will have to reupload card pic.
