Any drivers care to comment if they actually get the 5 bucks.

As the post says, just type it into the Amazon.com search bar, instead of using Alexa.

I agree but genuinely asking, what's a good job vs not a good job? I'm asking to improve my thinking/ maturity. And maybe see when my actions sucked too so I can be less of a useless being. Thanks in advance.
I left a tote on my porch with a note to please put the kids gifts in it so they don't see it. He did just that, so I thanked him.

Did this expire? I did it today but I saw no confirmation about the $5. So I went to Amazon's page describing this program, but it also didn't mention anything about the $5.

I tried to thank my driver from the Amazon website. It no longer says they are donating $5.

This promo would be better if we could subtract it from some of our FedEx driver's pay for delivering packages to random addresses 6+ miles away!

I almost always do this when they follow the simple instructions about where to put the packages. I never do it when they don't, and I wish there was a way to leave negative feedback for the drivers that lean packages up against my screen door when I have a giant porch with lots of seating as options if they're not following the instructions.

I wish they had the negative feedback or comment section too. 99% of the time they don't follow the simple instruction I have that says to leave in front of garage and do NOT leave on the porch. Even had the porch blocked off before and they just threw it over. That and the radio blasted full blast and just sitting there for 10 minutes. Talked to customer service about it but didn't help.
