The bastards recently charged me 16% tax on a bag of Blue Diamond cocoa dusted almonds. When I bitched out to their India based customer service, they sent me a lenthly letter with some BS how they appreciate my patronage and how taxes are differ across the states.
Definitely deserve a boycott!

Amazon is the hand that feeds me. Affordable, healthy groceries, and more free crap than I know what to do with as a Vine member.

I did find out I can get hot sauce cheaper directly from the manufacturer than I was getting it from Amazon as long as I buy a case, so I did. I think maybe they didn't offer that when I set up my subscribe and save for it.

Slickdeals is probably hosted on AWS (Amazon Web Services) and many other sites are too. If you're going to ban Amazon, no more internet for you!
