On the day it's delivered, cancel.
Change delivery day to earliest available.
When they arrive, open your phone and cancel all (3 minutes)
I've been doing this for years and have only let a couple accidental deliveries show up. But that's learning a hard lesson through experience. Still totally worth it.

Same thing here. I think we already used the coupon so we're out of luck.
Thanks for validating what I suspected -- guess my husband is SOL since I need the lotion more... 😏
Or you could do like I did ... I got my wife to order on her Amazon account to get the discounts.

You literally get an email and app notification reminder before your S&S items ship out and charge to your account, giving you at least a day to make any changes needed. You can set up in something like Gmail a rule so that email gets a star by it and/or marked important so you don't miss it. I don't find it too difficult.
Here's a tip:
For example, say you needed 5 cases of dog food (or any item or combo of items) a month. Make an individual S&S for each case, and that counts as 5 items, which I think unlocks max savings percentage. Anything else you add gets max savings, which can be up to 15%. If you make a single S&S order for 5 cases at once, it may count as 1 item, less savings.
I will say that you do have to keep an eye on prices since they don't make it obvious if prices are creeping up on you unless you go back and compare manually to previous orders. However, I generally save with S&S, at least compared to the grocery store. You might get a better sale somewhere but then you also had to drive there and spend time and gas.
