silversolitaireIt's official, God is mocking me.
I wanted to order a b-day gift for Tom on amazon. When I was going to check it was suddenly discounted by 20$ and I thought "Yay!". Knowing how his mom tends to throw around his stuff I thought I wait a bit. Then when I wanted to order it, the discount had suddenly poofed! T_T!!! I sulked for a couple of days. Then I looked into my goldbox at amazon and saw that they were offering me almost the same thing I wanted, discounted by 20$! Hurray! Without hesitating much, I finally got it! Ships in 24 hrs! Yay! It'll arrive right in time for his b-day! Then I get their confirmation email:
So yeah, it's official: God is SO mocking me. *sees a large finger pointing out of the clouds, going HAHAH!*

Shipping estimate: December 21, 2002The fuck? Today's the 13th! That's 24 hrs? So I check again and it says
Delivery estimate: December 26, 2002 - January 1, 2003
To ensure delivery by December 24, choose Standard Shipping.-.-;;; In essence, they leave my order lying around for OVER A FUCKING WEEK just because I qualified for Super Saver??? Then I look at a list and... lo and behold...
For delivery after December 24, this item ships for FREE with Super Saver Shipping.
Domestic Ordering Deadlines:-.-;;;
December 12: Last day to order items that say "Usually ships in 24 hours" using FREE Super Saver Shipping."
So yeah, it's official: God is SO mocking me. *sees a large finger pointing out of the clouds, going HAHAH!*
