I didn't get the 10th doctor screwdriver from Doctor Who. I immediately clicked purchase and went to do check out. As soon as I verified my shipping address, it said it was no longer available from the seller?
Not a big loss, but that was weird.

GMA suggested going to camelcamelcamel.com and enter what you are looking for and the price you'd pay and they would send alerts when the item drops to that price. I hate being tied to the computer so that's the route I'm taking.

I did get the $200 TV for my son which was the only thing I really wanted. I did get the fire stick too, but the tv is a smart tv so I won't need it. Guess I bought a Christmas present for someone. Lol!

I got a set of remastered Leonard Cohen CDs this morning, £16 for 11 albums. I was delighted with that. I also got a turquoise charger cable for my iPad. And because I chose to forego next day shipping on each purchase, I also got £6 of Kindle credit. I love Amazon!

I am a birthday sale failure. I checked some things out including some things in my browsing history. I ordered some expensive shoes and they were prime but they didn't have the extra 30% off at checkout. I thought they were a good deal since I checked other online sites and they were listed at over 220 so I went ahead.
Stupid me.

Completely unimpressed. Got the baby wipes so far. Blah.
I love that the 2 items I was able to put on a waitlist both said my chances of getting were POOR. In all caps. Thanks, Amazon!

I'm only looking at the categories of things I want. My list is the brother scan n cut, some kind of cordless stick vac, a new epilator, and an ipad mini (that probably won't happen though). Walmart.com has the ipad mini for 265, not sure if that is a deal or not Actually they have the ipad mini 2 for $229 but I don't want to give walmart my cc number after the last two times my account was hacked there.

It still shows 229 for me but says local pickup (not local enough for me right now). But even with local pickup you have to pay online if it's over $25. eta: maybe it's not local only but I still don't want to give them my cc. Attachments:

Is there any place that you can go on a prime to see what all is on sale?

The instant pot is on sale for $100. Not sure if that's a great price. I don't use my Fagor enough to consider replacing it yet.

They haven't really offered anything I need or could use. I just don't get excited about Finish detergent, if you know what I mean. And I'm stocked up on dishwashing supplies.
I did see where Kindle is on sale (I bought one in February) and my camera I bought last November. If you buy a Fitbit HR Charge, like I did three weeks ago, you get Amazon credit. Sigh.

yea nothing too exciting.. we were kinda disappointed really even in movies. What the heck! I even gotta call from my bank to make sure we ordered the two purchases from them yesterday and today which was nice for them to check. I did the one yesterday and Dh did one today for his test strips but they weren't on sale. I know it was just certain things. I did also see that Best Buy is also going to do one as well as Walmart. I wonder if it was any better.

I missed the one thing I was looking for. I looked earlier in the day and it wasn't listed. When I came back to the site it was sold out and I ended up 500 on the wait list. I was sad. It was the one thing I talked about getting with my dh this morning and it was a really good price. I did also buy a new vacuum. I hate my current one. it's a 20 year old Kirby. it's so heavy and difficult to use the hose with. I got the Shark that lifts off the base. Should make stairs a heck of a lot easier.

My sister got the $100 worth of house hold items for $25, but I was too late. I wanted the Kindle, but I'm on the wait list.

Someone called it "Amazon's Garage Sale." I find that pretty accurate!

Facebook said there was a PS4 bundled, but when I went it never showed up. DS really wanted that and I would have ordered it for him. I was watching all day and it didn't pop up at all.

Does anyone know how to check your waitlist number? ? Also, if you do get the waitlist item, how do they contact you?

I'll bite... what is instant pot, and is it only available in 5 states? It is a pressure cooker. I actually ordered it (had good reviews and we have been wanting one for quite awhile). I ordered it, but then remembered I wanted to go through swagbucks. I cancelled to order through swagbucks again, but unfortunately when I did that it raised $32 in price.

I got a notice that poped up on my screen when I was looking at other Amazon things. It gave me 15 minutes or so to buy it just like it does if you get something right away.

Yeah, I wasn't terribly impressed. I did buy the Drinkwell pet fountain... the one we have is getting up there... and cleaning tools to go with. Other than that, there really wasn't much that got my attention. Garage sale... apt description.

Walmart must like you better, it keeps upping the price on me, anyway I just gave up and bought a cheapy tablet, it's for my son, and this way if it breaks in only out $50 instead of $200+. I just thought $229 sounded like a good price

I was able to get a dremel tool with a couple of bit add-ons for just over $100.00 plus saved an additional $20.00 off the total purchase. Great Christmas gift for my brother.

25 of the Best Tweets About Prime Day Sale These pretty much sum it up for me. All I managed to get was a set of electric curlers that I was able to use a 35% off code on. I hope they aren't saving the best for last because I won't be heading back to Amazon to check it out. The link just reopens this thread...- I'd love to see the tweets if you don't mind re-posting it.

So when can I quit stalking amazon for waitlist items? I don't even remember exactly which items are waitlisted for me.

Anyone know... if you are not on Amazon if an item you were on the waitlist for comes up, do you just miss out?? Yes. I am so not impressed with how it is not working. I keep putting my name on waitlists and stay on the sight looking at other things, then when I go back to that listing, I'm no longer on the waitlist and have to sign up again. It has happened at least 8 times. I wanted some lightening cables - they were due up at 6:50 and I was still eating dinner with the kiddos. I got on and 6:55 and they were completely sold out, no waitlist even. A similar thing happened with a label maker. I did buy the T-Fal stove top pressure cooker to go with my electric one. I want to use one for canning and need the higher psi of a stovetop cooker.
