Like any decent man, I waited until days prior to buy Mother's Day gifts. I login to Amazon and despite paying for Prime, nearly EVERYTHING won't be delivered until the 14th. What's the purpose of paying more if I have to wait 8 days?

You missed the story where Amazon said they were making essential goods a priority?

This is a bigger issue than black men getting slightly inconvenienced.

It is. At least I'm aware of that. Now carry on with your daily ritual while your loved one is on the front line

Which is weird since you can't buy TP, Hand sanitizer or clorox wipes either on there.

I'm thinking about women and trying to get the economy going and I'm being inconvenienced. Totally unfair!

Maybe he didn't see it because someone only posted a link to the story and not the text.

Prime does that so they don't over promise. Your items will be delivered sooner.

Today I was inspired to look for masks that are different/offensive and noticed there was no next day for anything and most stuff was an 8 day wait. IF I really needed something this would be a problem. They mark up the prices in some cases by more than 15% in order to deliver something the same or next day. If they're making you wait more than a week their membership is useless.

I ordered some Nikon equipment on Sunday and the expected delivery date was May 15. It arrived today.
Ordered a special lithium battery power tank for the telescope on Friday that was scheduled for the 10th and it arrived Monday.

So it's not quite next day like you signed up for but it isn't a week either.

Right. I rarely got next day deliveries anyway. Thats close to average. Don't worry too much about the delivery date is all I'm saying. Stuff is moving faster than the app says so far, at least here.

I searched for a bong type mask but naturally it had a hole for your mouth. I got a Michael Myers and growling bear mask. I'm still shooting for offensive.

A friend of mine sewed up a bunch of masks for friends and family last week and sent me two and my dad two. She does curtain making as a side gig so she has a professional grade sewing machine and has been using remaindered fabric. She said that the hardest thing to find right now is elastic, so she had to improvise a little.

I'm trying to get her to ramp up and sell, but no dice.

Bungee cords are full of elastic. Maybe get her some of those.

She improvised with t-shirt material. But I will mention that to her.
