The "can't take it with you" edition for 2012. Whee

How many orders do you think you'll place on amazon.com this year? In 2011, I placed 16 orders (which seemed low to me, but whatever). For '12, I'm thinking I'll be over 100. I'm already at 3, although it's being delivered in 4 separate packages.

I say every time you order something from amazon, you can come update it in here. laugh out loud


I'm at 3 on Jan 3rd. Whee

Though I also been starting the free Amazon Prime streaming, though you get a recipt as it was a "purchase."
I don't get receipts when I do Amazon prime videos.

Think the last one was rented, but I had a credit. Just remember getting many of the "Purchase Conformation" e-mails for $0.00

Does the count include free kindle books? Woot
laugh out loud I didn't include the free books in my 2011 count.

Since I moved last year and that probably upped my 2011 count I think it might be more like 100 orders this year.

i'm still averaging about an order every two days between myself and the business with prime free shipping.

so i'm gonna guess about 180ish...

and that doesnt include the app purchase since i have four different devices running the amazon app store that average at least one "purchase" a day.

Well based on last years purchasing (2 orders) and years before that (1 each) I'll go out on a limb and say 3.

Digital downloads don't count. I would have had over 200 last year if I had counted them. laugh out loud

TOO MANY lol.. I have Prime and bought my own this year. Usually my sister gives it to me thru her's for my birthday..(which is Friday) but we had a difference of opinion and she kicked me off in June (talk about taking back a GIFT) so I got my own and put my son on it. Aren't you allowed 4 people total? I will have to check...
Anyway I will buy all kinds of stuff even if I don't need it..because it is a GOOD DEAL LOL!!!
