It is a great Idea, but one major problem Most places don't ship to Alaska or Hawaii, without some major cash outlay for frieght. I ordered an awning tarp, and even though it was boxed and mailable, it still cost over 90 to ship to me. UPS ground and FEDEx ground are very expensive to here, even though we are a hub for both. We get raped by both those carriers up here. USPS is by far the cheapest way for us to get most things. Amazon is really the only other source, and that is hit and miss for AK/HI also.

Then it must be the drugs, and you aren't sharing. Where did you see a ponytail holder? Have you been trying to study the Trump/Pense initial logo? It looked like a freaking eye exam chart. I can hear it now. Can you read the bottom line? lol

Damn , that sucks. Yea I'd go with Amazon on everything. Prime is well worth $99 a year. I was at a party earlier today and the guy got an Amazon delivery. I just heard about it a few weeks back. Amazon and the postal carriers worked out a deal to deliver on Sundays in the US. Part of their FREE 2 day delivery program. It's a pretty amazing service they are providing now. Seems like that should work well for you as well. You ought to give it a try, if you haven't already...it's still fairly new. I imagine big box items might qualify now.(?) Iduno, I know it's free just to try it out. Think they give yuh two weeks free to try and decide.

I use Prime, but it doesn't cover everything to AK/HI. I mean, it covers 80% of the things, but because of size, they don't ship big items without some kind of a charge additional. My neighbor bought a sink thru Prime, and got it free. She then ordered a Microwave, and it cost her 22.00 over even with Prime. It's actually a crap shoot. I got 2 tires sent free, but the next set cost me an additional 97.00. Still it was less than I could buy them locally, but the 97.00 fee really took me by surprise. Like I said, it's hit and miss with Amazon for big items to here anyways. lol

Right, the watermelon probably wouldn't make it out of customs over there lol.
