Honestly, I’m just kinda over it all, TikTok served me recipes, dog videos, comedy clips, and helped me indulge in my curiosity. Amazon just costs me money and they’re not the company they were 10-years ago.
…they cost you money because you buy things on their website? Which is a behavior that you have full control over? Interesting way to dodge the blame there
Not quite. I know their website offers level of convenience that encourages impulse spending, so I stay away from them.
Here’s an example, I got book 3, 4, and 5 of a series for Christmas. It’s been a while since I read book 1 and 2, so I wanted to read them again. No big deal, I already own them, but couldn’t find them on our bookshelves. So I checked Amazon and it was like $20 to get new copies. I almost ordered them, before my brain said maybe check the library, so I did, and had the books to read in two days.
