I love the little snippets into other peoples lives and all the weird and wonderful stuff people order from Amazon.

Mine was grout cleaner and chicken gravy cubes, what was yours?

They did this with my last order to, even though I'm sure it would have fit through the letterbox (and the tracking said delivered through letterbox).

They used to at least ring before dumping the parcel on the doorstep but now they even bother with that!

They don't usually do this so not sure why they did tonight (there's even a cupboard next to the front door they could leave it in) even more annoyed that I ticked the gift option for the blanket as its a birthday present for DD and it arrived just wrapped in see through plastic 😬

A dancing crab for 4montb old DC Christmas

A colouring/paint activity set for 19MO DC Christmas

A headband for removing/applying makeup & skincare for me😂

I order too often tbh. It's now a habit especially for Morrisons and fresh.

I had to look up what they are. Modern materials technology knows no bounds!

1kg coffee beans - my local store had run out of the ones I like - a quick google and there they are on Amazon, delivery within 24 hours and …… £8 cheaper - small roaster with a storefront.

No wonder the high st is struggling!

I had a parcel delivered to the wrong address quite a distance away, and several strangers very kindly eventually got it dropped off at my house. 20 packets of Refreshers.

Well yeah....a thread that ask people what they bought from Amazon is going to attract people that have an Amazon account!
