    I'm not joking there is actually a $5 tip (adjustable) that they tack onto the order.

    They shouldn't call it a tip then. They should just charge extra for same day service.

    Agreed. Nobody is happy about hidden fees. Be upfront about it.

    It's been a while since I used Amazon. It's pretty much the online equivalent of Wal-Mart, which would explain its popularity.

    Well. The tip is actually a tip.
    The 7.99 fee is the one-hour delivery charge.

    Favor is a better value by far.

    I used my student email to get a free year of Amazon prime & every year since that has been about a $40 fee. I probably save 10x that amount in shipping costs. I never thought I'd use Amazon that much but when its free 2-day shipping of almost anything you could want at your door, why not!? It's great. Even for like regular convenience store stuff. My friend who first advised me to get it told me it's how she makes sure she always has toilet paper :grin:
