Well, I for one appreciate the back-channel info HOTPE as it gives some idea of the possibilities involved. As we know in 2008, the financial system was literally days away from credit cards not working so having enough cash on hand to weather such an event makes sense to me.
Someone on the West Coast mentioned to me over the weekend that they had heard Amazon might not be able to fulfill all of its orders coming up in the next week. That led me to throwing in several last minute items that would be nice to have and are now on their way.
If he was wrong, I would just end up with things I wanted anyway but just didn't have an immediate need. As he was right, I ended up with things I wanted, that are now very difficult to get.
So win-win?
