Quick little anecdote... I was browsing Amazon around my birthday, which was the 13th of April, and i decided to get myself a grinder, since I've never owned one, just been around people with them.

So I go find the cheaper one that I'm familiar with, but decide to spring for something a little bit more expensive, for the quality. Well, the $20 grinder had that Free Shipper Saving whatever thing, where if you get over $25 of marked items, shipping's free. Cool! So I go and get some darning needles, 7 bucks, and go to check out.

Well, I accidentally hit the "QUICK FINISH SKIP THE BULLSHIT CHECK-OUT" button, which didn't turn out to be as big of a mistake as I thought... because they automatically applied the free shipping, PLUS some long-lost unclaimed $12 remains of a gift-card, PLUS some like 10% or 15% discount, which i THINK was for when they jerked me around over Christmas...

long story short, with all the savings, my total was $7 and change, just the price of the darning needles! FREE GRINDER!!

And the best part, it was scheduled to arrive on April 21st, but 420 came and there was my grinder, waiting for me at the bottom of the stairs.

Life can be grand :stoned:

Moral of the story, you sell many more darning needles if you include a free grinder with each purchase. :D:thumbsup:

Amazon is like the Walmart of the internet.

That is a cool story though. Life is strange like that.
