Because of my arthritis, I'm a heavy Amazon user. Why haul a 40 lb box of cat litter out to my car, then take it out of my car and lug it up the steps when Amazon will bring it right to my doorstep for cheaper?
My folks and I just started using Chewy for our pet products. It's much easier than having to drive 27 miles to my vet to get my cat's prescription food or my folks having to drive 20 miles to a store that carries their dog food. And though, at least in my case, the cat food is about the same price, it's nice having it delivered for free.
I haven't ordered litter from Chewy yet, but the next time either I, or they, place an order and it's over $50, or the litter would help to bring it to over $50, I might very well do so. :)
As for Prime Day, I didn't realize it was coming. I just signed up for the free Prime trial on June 20th, and had I known Prime day was coming I would have waited to order my Raspberry Pi Zero W instead of ordering it on Tuesday. :( Still, it's not like it was terribly expensive. If it was I would REALLY be kicking myself right now. :p
...if only you poor poor people knew what Prime Day does to the employees. I HATE Prime Day with a passion... Almost as much as Peak Season... -.-

Must be a pretty crazy time for employees. I have Prime but Prime Day has never appealed to me.

First this is only my opinion. Not meant to insult anyone. All the online shopping is making people LAZIER than they normally are. If we continue we won't have any mortar stores left. end of rant. Thank you & have a great day.

No offence taken here --- but for me, shopping online saves me time, gas, and money, and allows me to get things that I can't find at local stores. So I'm very grateful online shopping is available.
- debbie.jean.bro7 years agoAdvanced Tutor@CORROSIVE, I feel your pain! I worked for Macy's for many years and dreaded Black Friday, the day after Christmas, and pretty much October- January, lol! I also remember when I was little, my dad, who was a teacher, took a night job with UPS to help make ends meet. Even back then (1960's), the holiday season about killed him.
