    I have prime. Never got anything on sunday alwaysmonday
    Prime is getting slack. I use to get non prime stuff in 1-5 days usually. Got prime and canceled it everything took like 8-14 days. I swear they do that to force u to buy it back! Many and most amazon prices easily allow for shipping esp since they have an agreed rate. Of course you order a bunch of $5-10 stuff singley they loose but most people only occasional ly do that.

    My dang phone is so slow when on this certain charger!

    FYI, I ship and receive lots of stuff, especially lately. The USPS told me yesterday (Thursday) MOST of their mail is running waaaay later than normal. Amazon switched to them a few months ago, and it is killing them, they can't handle it especially now during holidays. So expect all your stuff to be late! In addition, Amazon got tired of the USPS delivering late and not holding their end of the deal, so they have already decided to switch back to UPS. Some of it has already started switching, and UPS is hiring more drivers to handle the load.

    Not anymore! Going back to UPS. Many think in suburban areas (like Long Island, and around other big cities), Amazon is going to start their own delivery service which will leave right from their regional warehouse and deliver to your door, in many cases the same or next day at no extra cost. And then, there are drones! Delivery in 1 hour! Gotta love that! :D

    I looked at a box tonight from amazon and it had a fedex label on it.

    Most things have ups labels.

    And as of a week or two ago I got ups smart post stuff.

    Ups and fedex hire thousands more temp workers this time year.

    That kills me. We have a community lock box with small packages only, so they end up at the post office 30 miles from here. Sad to say, I have bought a couple cool things with UPS tracking code, then to be changed to "smart post", WWW is too busy/out of town, or both, and the items get returned to sender.

    I also had notsosmart posts at my previous home in 2011, I ordered lil ones diapers by the case from amazon. Now why would UPS show up at my doorstep with a small envelope, but take a case of diapers to my rural one room post office?
