The only thing I've bought from Amazon is vacuum cleaner bags for our particular model. None of the local stores stock them.
My source for years was the vacuum cleaner guy who had a booth for three months a year at Stormville*. But he retired to Florida full time, so I had to buy them from Bezos.

Later

No Amazon now and likely not ever

I have a Wal-ly Mart within walking distance for most everything

The offerings on free streamers Tubi and Pluto have improved 10 fold. Optimum free demand is very good to me anyway

15 minutes of content before ads on Tubi etc

I have zero interest in streamed sports, maybe 30 years ago I guess but after Mets baseball and Rutgers football I'm not really invested in sports

Something I’m guilty of is seeing something I like in a catalog and then buying it from Amazon for the free shipping
