And during previous Prime Day sales the shipping time wasn't impacted much (a day or two slower at most), including July's. Why this one was one different is a very good question. |

If I had to take a guess, I would say a LOT of people are doing some early Xmass shopping! That is going to slow things down.
Naturally things are changing for Amazon, they have a HUGE customer base, but even with expansion, they are probably having hiring difficulties just like every other large corporation. I'm just grateful that Amazon exist because it saves me time and energy from wasting my time having to go out to shop, then lug it home, providing I even find what I'm looking for. If I save money on whatever I get, that's a bonus. |

Do any of the warehouse clubs let you be a member, and shop online, without ever visiting the store?

If you are a member of Sam's Club or Costco, you do not have to buy in store unless you want to. I do both though.
![]() We have a Sam's Club here and I by instore and online. The nearest Costco is an hour and a half away. I have a membership and only go to the store for my glasses. I have bought a number of big-ticket items at better prices than anyone else. Earlier this year I bought a 36" GE Profile Induction cooktop. The regular price was $2,500.00 Home Depot and Lowes had it on sale for $2,200.00. Costco had the exact same model for $1,700.00 and free shipping. I am now a huge fan of Induction cooktops.

I can also shop and pay online, select a pickup time and they bring it out and load up the vehicle... all included in the fee. I also really like their app which works great and allows you to skip the checkout line if you do venture inside. Costco online leaves a lot to be desired IMO. They have good prices on big ticket items but grocery shopping online doesn't really seem feasible. Also, prices seem to be more expensive online. On the plus side, if you actually go in the store they have a lot of high quality and organic items. I think Costco has higher quality food than Sams overall but they make you hunt for it. Yeah, they constantly shuffle crap around to make you look for it. ![]() |

What Apache does only works if you live close enough for delivery from the store. My Costco's 45 minutes away by car, so a lot of stuff on the site isn't available for me to buy online because they won't ship it. Prices can be higher, because they tend to factor the shipping cost into the listed price. For example they had a really good sale on some wire storage shelving recently and it was $20 more online than in the store, because it was heavy and shipping was expensive. One caveat: Both stores may have some in-store only deals for Black Friday sales. If you're wanting one of those items, you'll have to go to the store. |
