> but having to wait a day or two on average is nothing I've personally felt any existential dread about.

I used to think the same thing but ever since I got used to amazon's overnight delivery its a completely different ballgame. Eg: Diswashing liquid almost over -> order it on amazon.

Dishwashing liquid almost empty -> take another off the shelf, consider reordering, never worry about paying higher shipping, a subscription, or it being "late" if it takes gasp three days.

yea you can obviously save money by being organised, going to stores, cutting coupons ect.

Different people have priorties in life though.

Right, because sorting by cheapest price per count and buying in bulk can be equated with the time involved in clipping coupons.

I live in a tiny studio. I don't buy in bulk.
