They claim the overall prices are lower, but we know the savings goes 100% to
corporate profits & $0.0000000001% to lower prices.

I prefer to have a human there to ask last-minute questions of, & to claim my
free stuff without delays (here there's a polixcy that if any item rings up
even 1c higher than ANY printed/posted price, you get it free, up to $10 -- I
claim $20-$50/year or more. . .

when the sale price ends, the price is double the original! :( 

On Jeff Dunham: I heard one of his newer shows the other day & I see what you
mean -- it was jarring the gratuitous F-bombs. I'm okay with one or two done
in the right timing to add to the humour, not disract one. . .

Get his early stuff -- no swears. . .

I haven't kept up my subscription to the Scrabble club....
Now they have started sending me threatening letters.

I'm very disappointed with my Amazon Prime subscription!
it will only let me watch episodes 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13

A year ago, I got a subscription to a magazine for mentally ill people.
Now I have many issues.

My Dad to a telemarketer selling magazine subscriptions...
No thanks, we're all illiterate. (I'm going to use this one!)

Someone approached me and asked me to help save the Amazon
So I signed up for a Prime subscription and restocked my bookcase.
