When they raised the minimum order for free shipping, they stopped sending all my orders FedEx and switched to USPS.
They get here in about the same time, but now I have to go pick them up during the few hours the PO is open.
On the other hand, I ordered something from Target 8/9, and they said it would arrive 8/19--last Friday.
Tracking says it shipped from New Mexico 8/10 via UPS--UPS says they got it on the 15th, and they accidentally sent it to New Jersey.
From there it took 3 days to get to San Pablo, CA--where UPS hands packages off to USPS--then to So.San Francisco, and now it's back in San Pablo, presumably waiting for a boat. I might see it in a couple of weeks, or maybe a month.
Actually makes Amazon look pretty good.
