Amazon Getting a Bit Tricky With Their Free Shipping.

..and Temu is even cheaper, altho' you do have to be a little discerning.. but I've bought a lot from there.. free shipping , no paying for a Prime equivalent.. and I've checked almost everything I've bought against the same items on Amazon, and Temu are always much cheaper.. and also if anything arives damaged or broken.. if you upload a picture to your account they instantly refund your money back into your account.. Also if your goods arrive ( and they do take about a week to come).. after the specified date they will give you money off your next order

of course they don't sell huge items like amazon but for every day things.. I've found them to be excellent..

Just received my first order from Temu - great quality and cheaper than Amazon.

As Holly says, their prices are great and shipping is free but don't order anything you need in a hurry. I'm grateful to have set up my account using a junk email address because they email you roughly five times a day (I've counted), so even more than Wayfair.

Me too. And I got a phony text on my cell today saying my debit card was frozen because of a fraud purchase at walmart...a debit card with a bank that I don't even have an account at. :rolleyes:

They just try and try. I don't know if I mentioned the cell call I got about my "visa and mastercard" I'm not sure but I think those are two seperate companies?

And if there is ever a legit problem with a credit card, it will be your credit card company that catches it. I had this happen. Something from my Paypal account. They immediately cancelled my card and sent me a new one with a new account number.

I've used my card to order from a foreign country. They know when it's a legit company and transaction.

I love the free easy returns. Just today I wanted to return something and it turned out I could take it to a Kohl's store about 9 minutes away and they pack and ship it back free, plus Kohl's gave me a 15% off coupon, unfortunately I didn't see anything in the store that I wanted to buy.

So do I. I rarely return anything - maybe one out of fifty purchases - and they make it easy for me to return to an Amazon Fresh store that's only a few miles from here. BTW, the store is beautiful but very pricey. Not at all competitive with nearby grocers. Can't imagine they'll be in business long, at least not in that location.

yes we too can go to an Amazon locker.. but with one day delivery and me at home and not at work any more.. I never use the pickup points... handy tho' for people who live in flats ( apartment blocks) where a delivery man might find it difficult to get into the building..

My deliveries are nearly always one day, too. Sometimes the same day, rarely two days. Prime is financially worthwhile for me. Saves on gasoline, not to mention the impulse buys I'd be making if I had to go to a store.
 
I get Prime free as a perk from MetroPCS. But even before being a Prime member, I got free shipping simply by bunching my purchases so that I had more than $35 (and for a time it was $49) in purchases. Maneuvering their check out process can be tricky. Been there, done that. It's a good thing you double checked. But push come to shove, if necessary you could try getting a refund for shipping you missed the free shipping area during your order. You can actually have a rep call you.

yes that's the only problem I've found with them , is the mailing.. altho' tbf to them it's not spam..it's constant updates as to where your parcel is..etc.. but yes always better to have a junk email address for things like that...
