I just found out today that those coinstar machines in supermarkets let you get an Amazon gift card with no vig instead of cash with them taking 8.9 cents on the dollar. Sweet!

Hmm, not a bad thing to know.

I can usually find just about anything cheaper somewhere else instead of buying it on Amazon. I usually start with shopper.com

I selected this item at random.

Bread Machine

Detailed review of product and its products when you get going on it, please.

Two blades is completely unnecessary and I doubt it even helps much. This is also twice as much as many perfectly good breadmakers. But the main thing is not if it's the super-duper best ever regards "features," but whether it cooks bread well. I've had two breadmakers before and both were really great. Moved and gave them both away over the years, but sooner or later will have to get another. Fresh-baked bread is fantastic, and these breadmakers do it extremely well.

Also, great for making pizza crust! Home-made pizza is soooo much better than delivery junk or most restaurant pizzas. And real easy to make. Definitely recommend you try it soon! You'll probably have a recipe for the sauce in the recipe booklet you get with your breadmaker.

37 Items, and I agree with the OP, my girlfriend made fun of me last week when I ordered new Mouthwash and razor blades via amazon instead of driving to the store.

3) amazon's increased usage of the marketplace, and their site not making it easy to search just amazon (and not their 3rd party sellers) for stuff. once before a camping trip, I had added various camping gear to my cart and the shipping was insanely expensive because everything in my cart was coming from a different 3rd party seller. also, all the shipping times were different and I needed everything to come all at once or not at all.

i hate running into amazon marketplace sellers too. just let me know if the crap is in stock or out of stock, none of this "buy new and used from $13.86" stuff that leads to a dead-end used product with different shipping rates and policies. if everyone was held under the amazon umbrella and they separated the used stuff better, i don't think i'd have a problem.

I buy from the marketplace sellers all the time, stuff is cheaper and I've never had any problems with them.

I use amazon maybe once a year for books. They're way cheaper than what they cost in Finland.

Yeah, because Amazon only has books.
