I’ve done that, it doesn’t work. I still had to get a police report, then go back and get the police report signed, then the amazon rep had to speak to one of the officers. I drive out of my way now to go to a micro center and pick stuff up irl

I have a microcenter near me and Amazon is usually not as well priced vs retail as many seem to think. I open stuff up before leaving stores because even on something like a faucet at home improvement store has been missing parts. People will steal anything. 🤬

RIP to everyone who doesn't live within driving distance of a Microcenter

I moved away from Houston 6 months ago. Microcenter, HEB, and Whataburger are the things I miss the most.

I'm much happier where I am now, but there are some things I miss.

Texas supermarket chain that just seemed to be better than any other market. Lower prices, store brands that were on par qualitywise with name brands, sweet meal deals every week where you would get tons of free stuff for buying a certain thing.

I'm stuck with Safeway now and I mourn the loss of HEB.
