What is your best ever Amazon buy?
Mine is a pair of back scratchers.
They cost me Β£5 delivered for two and they really work for me!

Amazon Prime membership π
Arguably that's my worst buy as well, though!!

Ha I agree @66Mustang π Next day delivery is so convenient but also the ability to late night impulse shop not so muchπ
I think mine would be vitamin E oil for Β£5.09, its really good quality and pure vitamin E and has helped my skin a lot!

Great collection @rubin16, I especially like the little elephant statuesπ
Vitamin E is very hydrating for the skin and makes it nice and soft @66Mustang! I have a very dry hands in the winter but I have found that the vitamin E is making less dry and cracked!0 -
ordered a new pipe for my fish tank and received a bar of organic soap worth 35 pounds i should imagine the people who pay that for a bar of soap are evian spelt backwards water buyers as well

I rarely use Amazon. Often seem to be disappointed by damaged or low quality items.
I think the most useful would have to be a plug-in heater I bought about 5 years ago. It's been the only source of heat in my flat for the last few years!

Ah, I've never paid for Prime so not had that problem. I only buy things on there when the value is high enough for free postage on normal Amazon. π

I use amazon for basically everything except food, I wish I didn't as I don't like supporting the company but it's just so convenient and cost effective, especially as I can't get out.
I use it for water, batteries, cleaning supplies, hygiene items, furniture, toiletries, furnishings, even some medicine, basically everything. I ordered toothpaste and shampoo this morning and it's expected to arrive between 5-7pm tonight!!!
I have Prime as I order so often it saves me a fortune, I like some of their TV too so that's a bonus (although theyve started doing soooo many adverts on their TV and you can pay to have a less-advert heavy version which is just crazy. When you pause shows on TV it not shows an ad with a direct link to buy the item too *grumble grumble*
The other bonus is they always leave the package on my doorstep, without fail, so I don't have to worry about answering to them

I have had many many free trials of Prime - it seems that every time I log in nowadays, I get offered a weeks free trial !

Snap!
And from there, a lot of smart plugs that run everything & saved me having to have all the sockets chased up the walls to within my reach. Also, the Echo Dot that lets me control them & gives me someone to talk to, other than my mutt. π

I have spent 1000's with Amazon over the years - it is extremely useful being able to order virtually anything from my armchair for delivery within 24 hours !!

Same! It's so convenient. Especially when I'm not feeling like going out into the world to get things. That's probably not a good thing, but helps when I'm really anxious π

I agree, definitely agree. But in the current state of the world it is very hard to have principles, because it is way too much of a hassle to find a different store with similar products and variety, or to quit my Google account for the same reason and then have everything redirected to another. On and on it goes, sigh.

I wonder how many others can claim never to have used Whatsapp, I just realized :)

I agree with you over Israeli products, @Chris75_ , for years I've checked everything I buy to make sure it's not. The same for palm oil, slightly different, but still avoid if there is the ingredient in its many guises & it has many.
Re Amazon, I tried OnBuy, a British version, but I had a few problems, so that meant Amazon. As much as I hate what the US, especially through the terms of the abhorent felon, has done & is doing, Amazon makes my life easier.

I've also never used Whatsapp.
Was surprised to hear that it's been around since 2009. That was a question on Limitless Win last night.
