Amazon Pime Sale July 8-11

[Mike 1017]

They do have deals on a few kits. I got Mr.Norms Funny Car $24.37 and Shirley Muldowney Mustang $25.34 Free shipping with Prime. We buy a lot from Amazon Prime so a Prime Membership is worth it to us.

I won't buy anything from Bezos if there's any other possible source, period.

not even if the Pime fits?

Seriously though, I use Amazon all the time. But it's funny how almost nothing in my watch lists are ever on sale during Prime days. 

But there have been a few things. 

And here's a fun tip, if you have items that  are "subscribe and save," have a closer look now. 

Last year, my 3d printing resin went on sale during Prime Days. When I checked off Subscribe and Save, it locked it in at the Prime Days price, less the 5% savings offered by subscribing. 

And I just noticed yesterday that the larger bottle of resin, which is normally $33 CDN is on sale for $25 CDN. And Subscribe & Save makes it even less. So I locked that it, because now I can get the 1000g bottle for almost the same price as the regular price of the 500g bottle.

 

Amazon Canada is pretty good for modelling supplies, but really weak in their kit selection.

that's how they getcha. i think most of the sale stuff is a loss-leader.

but i did sign up for a subscription channel for 99 cents a month for 2 months.

i can be a "sport" sometimes.

I've used Amazon Canada probably 4 times, each time has been positive. Last week I had my item in 14 hours. If it were up to me I'd be giving them the mail to deliver.  😉

I needed a coolant temperature sensor for our Volvo. I ordered it in the evening, prob around 10pm. Delivered before 9am the following day. And 1/4 the cost of the part from NAPA or Parts Source, and 1/2 the cost from Volvo.

I bought a garbage disposal last year and saved ~$50 over Lowe's or Home Depot. We were redoing the kitchen and were going to replace it anyway. I don't have my eye on anything this year.

I did get some discounted dog food & treats (food and treats I normally buy from Amazon).  I've noticed other retailers are also doing Prime Day/Prime Week sales of their own--I scored some Mattel Creations Hot Wheels and Matchbox premium die cast deep discounted today.
