We have been buying extra strong PG Tips British tea from Amazon because we think American tea is way too weak. 3 boxes of 80 were about $40 last time I bought them a few months ago. They’re now $80. Thankfully we discovered we can get an order of 6 for $60, but we have to wait until mid-February for the to arrive. Meanwhile, a single box of the same tea, which we’ll have to get in the mean time, is $20. Yes, a single box is less per box than a 3-count box order, but you still save if you buy 6 boxes. How does any of that make sense?
This year I’m trying to move away from Amazon, first letting our prime membership lapse in I believe a week. May replace it with Walmart+ or nothing.
But the reality is I was ok paying a fee for fast shipping, but this stupid crap with adding “free” perks that ultimately raise the price combined with the terrible review system, and just garbage products has me backing away. I don’t use/find enough value in all the extra perks above free shipping to justify the cost.
