I try to avoid Amazon but ended up

2024-10-13 18:40:03.310188+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I try to avoid Amazon, but ended up signing up for a free Prime trial to watch a movie last night, and... I could either, on Tuesday, drive 25 miles to hope that Electronics Plus in San Rafael has what I want in stock, or have 20 of them delivered for ten bucks tomorrow.

And given the number of things delivered in my neighborhood, I'm sure that that's dramatically fewer vehicle miles traveled.
