I added 2 more items to subscribe and save recently on Amazon

July 14, 2024 11:05am CST
Good afternoon! I have had my Onyx's cat food on the subscribe and save and for years that was the only thing that I got. I love writing in colored pens as they make me happy and mine were all running out of ink. I looked at Walmart and 8 pens cost almost $20! I looked up colored pens on Amazon and found a package of 48 for $14! many more pens and cheaper ones! so I ordered some and Amazon said people put them on subscribe and save and the most common time to get a new package is every five months, so I have a new package of pens coming at the end of November. (I got my first package in June) I should need new pens by then I write a lot. Then this morning I ordered Kitty Litter from Amazon, and they asked me if I wanted them to deliver it automatically and said that the most common delivery day is once a month so I signed up for that too. I will be getting kitty litter today even though my day to get items then I will get a box towards the end of the month which is my normal time I put things on subscribe and save to take pressure off myself to have to remember to order these things. This way it is taken care of and the package shows up on my porch! do you use subscribe and save? Have you added anything to your subscribe and save if you use it lately?

I don't use that because I mostly use Amazon gift cards on Amazon.

Are Amazon gift cards cheaper? where do you get them?

@LovesEverybody I get them from different places. I do swagbucks and mypoints which I do surveys and polls to get the gift cards. I do surveys on an app called Lifepoints. I also take pictures of my receipts and put them on the apps: Receipt Hog, Fetch, Amazon Shopper Panel, and ReceiptJar. I also walk around the house for an app called CashWalk. I also play games through Tapchamps. I listen to music through Mode Earn app. I also do Ibotta which a cash back app. I also do Bing Rewards which is looking at the news and doing quizzes and polls.

@JESSY3236 That is very impressive! I don't have enough patience to do those. but I sometimes wish I could do some of those. I sometimes do Bing Rewards but I do it for charity for The American Heart Association

@LovesEverybody Usually, Amazon is fairly dependable:) Also, Amazon has a large selection of paperback books, you might be interested in this!

since I don't drive shopping online is one of the easiest ways to get what I want. I don't want to wear out my welcome with people who drive me places! I love colored pens as they make me so happy! I saved 5% on Onnie's kitty litter yesterday. Amazon brought it so quickly from when they promised it to me that I nodded off and found it on the front porch already delivered! usually, they make me wait until 10:30 p.m. and then tell me they can't get it to me on the day promised and I have to wait until the next day! love you!

@kobesbuddy they are getting better lately. For a while they were telling me they would have it to me by 10 p.m. and at 11 p.m. tell me they would bring it the next day! I pay good money for prime one would think they could not make me wait all night. I wonder if they decided to treat me better when I stopped ordering anything but cat food. I had to get it there and I got kitty litter at other stores. But all is right with Amazon and me now! Love you!

That was a good idea. I used to have one subscribe and save. It was a more expensive healthy soda. I couldn’t justify buying it all the time, so I did the subscribe and save so I could treat myself once a month at a better price. I never treat myself like that so it felt good.

I can't justify buying the caffeine-free iced tea I want either. I am not allowed to drink caffeine with my medicine. I should put it on a subscribe and save for every few months. I never thought of doing that. I gave myself a treat and bought it for myself as a Christmas present a couple of years ago. iced tea is the only form of caffeine i miss. I don't even miss chocolate. it has been over a year since I had caffeine! How many bottles a month do you get when you get the healthy soda?

@LovesEverybody Good for you for getting off caffeine! The subscribe and save for the healthy soda sends me 12 cans of it once a month. I wish I could afford more, but I’ll be thankful for any!

@AmbiePam thank you! I just have a problem with wanting iced tea. to have something that is better than the plain boring water I usually drinkI decided to treat myself to Fiji Apple Flavored water that I get at Walmart. I put a bottle of it in the refrigerator and plan to have a glass of it with my dinner if I get some laundry washed today. Some of those healthy food and drink products can be expensive. I love how you are thinking positively that at least you get some each month!

That sounds a really good idea but it is possible you will end up with too much of an item?

@LovesEverybody It's good if you have the option to skip a month.

@JudyEv the option to skip is great so I don't get too much of it!

Well, there is always the option to skip a month if I think we can go without a new box. which is what I will probably do. But then the box is not that large- it is 17 pounds. Had it been 40 pounds like a lot of kitty litter boxes I would have made it a lot longer between deliveries. I just like the option of having it delivered every month because I don't want him to be without it. I have his dry cat food set to be delivered monthly and usually skip it for two or three months. In that case, it is because they refuse to sell his food to me in fewer than two 6-pound bags at a time. He can't eat that much because he gets wet food for dinner daily besides the dry food. Have a great day!

i am glad this deal was good. will you be waiting too long for packages to come?

Not really too long. the day for it to come is the last week of each month. I will have one monthly so I should have some until it is delivered. Thought sometimes if she was here during the day before garbage she might empty my cat's litterbox and into a garbage bag for the garbage men to take. My sister did that several weeks ago which is how I came to need it this last week. i clean it every two or three days and she does spring cleaning on his litter box!

I am not sure if Rachel Ray's Nutrish dry cat food is specialty but it sure is expensive. It is a little over $11 for a six-pound bag and Amazon refuses to send fewer than two. I spend somewhere around $23 each time I buy it. I don't buy it monthly as Onyx doesn't eat two bags and he gets wet food so he gets full with that. He loves his wet food. (note to self the next time I buy his wet food put it on subscribe and save) The shelter Onyx came from must have some good source of funding because they fed him Rachel Rays food I have been having a great time with my pens! the colors make my journal look so pretty! I write everything in color but checks and other official papers.
