I've ordered food from Amazon before, if I've been looking for a particular
brand of something that's not available in my area. Problem has always been
the shipping cost. And since it was never from amazon itself but rather the
partner stores, the shipping could be crazy. Most of the time I decide I
really don't need it that bad and I skip it, but I have ordered a few
things.

If I can get the stuff from Amazon and get free shipping, then adding a
bottle of something here and there to an order would make some sense, at
least. I'll probably look it over and see what they've got.
