If it even crossed your mind that you needed to subscribe to shipments of antacid tablets, I think managing your subscribe&save is the least of your problems.

Also, Amazon is the cheapest place to get baby formula that I've found.

Please explain? Makes perfect sense to me, I always buy them off amazon (cheaper), and use them semi-regularly as does the wife.
I don't know, maybe I'm way off here, but it seems to me that if you are popping antacid tabs that often, you might have a medical problem.

I do. The dr told me to pop them.

Ah, well there you go. It was just a joke that you probably have many problems more serious than whatever problems you find with S&S (as we all do).

I didn't mean to go on this tangent. I was just trying to say that, for me, S&S has solved more problems than it has created. If you find yourself running out of stuff before your next delivery, then bump up your schedule or increase your quantities. It's easier and faster to push a shipment back a month after you get the email than it is to make a separate order.

If you think pressing the "skip delivery" button is as much work as adding an item to your shopping list and picking it up at the store, then it almost seems like you look for things to stress about. Might be why you need to pop antacids all the time.



sorry for teasing about the antacids

I should put my doxylamine succinate pills on s&s. But I take one a night, and they come in packs of 24. frickers.

Four packs every third month will get you pretty close and you shouldn't run out.

right but this is where it starts to be more work than the little bit you save.

I don't think its a problem to hit skip, or change the frequency, but the reality is this really program doesnt work that well for me other than cat food, which my cat eats at a pretty standard interval.

Holy shite, I didn't even see the page of smart devices that automatically detect when you're running out of something, like the Brita filter that measures how much water is passing through the filter and orders a new one when it's low.



Yeah, I don't know if I want my printer to be in charge of how much ink I buy. (As if it isn't already)

Yeah, maybe HP could add a ka-ching! sound to the noises their printers make during the automatic "maintenance" cycles, whose primary purpose is to dump 50% of your ink into a blotter. As for Brother, I'm still on the starter toner hundreds of pages after it signaled it was out. ISTR covering a window with some tape to stop it from cheating me.

The only thing that I can put on subscribe and save is pet food. Everything else in the house is not really used consistently enough.

I poop pretty consistently, so I have toilet paper on S&S.

It is obviously not practical to have these things all over the house for every little thing, but having one for pet food, washing detergent, toilet paper, paper towels and stuff like that seems like a great idea.
