Sure Needed a Good Laugh

I get a monthly shipment for cat litter from Chewy and they automatically charge it to my account. So then I got $15 worth of gift cards for Amazon and chose to get myself an electric skillet and dry cat food for the beasts. I had enough money in my account to cover either one or the other order but figured it Amazon says delivery will be on December 12 they won’t take their money yet so there will be no problems and Chewy will get there first. Guess what happened? I was totally wrong and both Chewy and Amazon came to take their money. I saw the notice from my bank about zero balance and then I realized what had happened. It made me laugh how things sometimes are not at all predictable. Well tomorrow my SS arrives, I get my groceries, and everything evens out anyway. Put in a photo of a good donkey laugh

They consider it shipped once the order is pulled and label is printed. It sucks!

Glad it worked out. I won't buy stuff that way just because I freak out thinking just such a thing might occur. Glad you were able to laugh about it all.

@celticeagle well, when it cannot be helped and it is not so tragic it is best to laugh, Now everything is back on course. I need to Amazon orders because I get gift cards and it is easy to order dry cat food for my cats.

@wolfgirl569 well, what I was thinking was that one time I ordered from Amazon and since the order was to come in a week they didn't take money until just a few days before so I thought it would happen next week guess I was wrong,

@RasmaSandra I have had them do it both ways. A lot depends on the actual seller

It seems a bit unfair when things don't go as they should. That donkey certainly seems to be having a good laugh.

Yes, I learnt that the hard way and make sure I've got the money in the account before ordering. Irritating, but you get peace of mind
