Hell, normal conversation would violate the noise ordinance. You would be in real trouble if you had to call your kids or dog.So then even vacuuming out your car would violate the noise ordinance?

I second that. I also pay 9.99 a month for Kindle unlimited. I definitely get my monies worth there to.
Well I'm halfway there. Stopped for the night near the GA/SC line. This is where Doree and I stop almost every time we drive down to Florida. Best Western with a Denny's attached. Also get a free breakfast at Denny's.
Can't beat the price on that. Grand slam for free.Well I'm halfway there. Stopped for the night near the GA/SC line. This is where Doree and I stop almost every time we drive down to Florida. Best Western with a Denny's attached. Also get a free breakfast at Denny's.

. I mean, here's a customer who is going to close his acct. over a $1.73 item that YOUR reps. told, "We are crediting your acct. AND we will get the seller to refund the shipping costs to your CC." , then to turn around and say, "Claim denied" and imply that I was the "sucker" for going ahead and "finalizing" the transaction (which you'll see later and I have to admit, I do bear SOME responsibility, BUT...) without even mentioning , "You may simply return the item as "Not As Advertised" and receive a full refund on that purchase."
From what I've read (and thank you ALL for your interest and support!!!) THIS IS completely out of the ordinary and NOT the norm for Amazon. I honestly don't know why things went this way in this case and would prefer NOT to close my Amazon acct. After all, with our location and the benefits of most on line shopping, it's a no brainer. Once you get a bad taste in your mouth, though..............

There's no such thing as a free lunch though and I think that's what twists my "Underoos" the most. I was ok with getting charged "a little" shipping on the ENTIRE order. (Which is what I originally believed) $32 for a box that size to Alaska is actually fairly reasonable. But to get charged $32 for a 1/2 oz. package as small as that one was is COMPLETELY OUTRAGEOUS!!!
Here's a direct copy & paste of the first "denial" and the one I received this morning after pursuing the issue for three full days!

Too much of my valuable time (and yours. Sorry about that) has been wasted on this already. I do want everyone to be aware that I had this experience, that while Amazon seems to work well most of the time, for most of you, there are instances that can not be overlooked. I, personally can NOT do business in this type of atmosphere and caution all of you to be careful in the future. Thank ALL OF YOU again for your comments, interest and support.
GOOD BYE AMAZON!

Thank you for your support and suggestions
. (Final outcome at the end of this post .)I appreciate your interest as well. I was offered that option (to join "Prime" at check out) but there were those "catch phrases" that send up red flags for me, "for a free 30 day "Trial Period", cancel any time." I got involved with some "Time/Life" series of something or other a LONG time ago and will NEVER forget THAT experience

You would absolutely LOVE IT here! Come visit ANY TIME! You've ALWAYS got a FREE (and not Amazon's idea of "free" either! Ha, Ha!) place to stay. I'll have a Single Barrel Jack, straight up!I'm so sorry you had such an awful experience! You absolutely are entitled to rant! Were I in Alaska, I would gladly buy you a drink

Ya, LIS, this seems to be an anomaly. Just as a point of interest, you'd be surprised how many of "their" items come from China (and most of what we buy off the shelves right here in the good ol' USA). It was also mentioned earlier that "It came "all the way from CHINA"." Well, it turns out that Anchorage Alaska is "The Crossroads of the World and MOST of what gets to the Western US from Eastern Europe & Russia & China, comes through Anchorage first. (Check a globe for reference). Now, I can't see Russia from my kitchen window (har, har) but both Russia and China are nearly as close to us as Seattle, Wa.!!!
Thank you "bells". I appreciate your kind words and thoughts as well.

Not quite but, what they do pay for is plenty. Eggs, sausage, hash browns and a couple of pancakes. That's enough I think.
Yeh, me too. Not surprised though. Got to remember that there are more old farts per square mile in Florida than any other state as far as I know. They don't call it "God's waiting room" for nothing!
I couldn't help picking up on this. How many have noticed that it is a MAJOR PART of being in or hanging around a M.C. (Motorcycle Club). I'd say if "Big, Bad Bikers" don't have a problem with "it" why should anybody.I don't have a whole lot of problem with it either. Most guys just think it's weird though so I tend to avoid the "man hug."
Yessir! That sounds like a pretty hearty breakfast to me (and I eat A LOT!Not quite but, what they do pay for is plenty. Eggs, sausage, hash browns and a couple of pancakes. That's enough I think.
)Wow! The whole 60db thing kills me too! I can picture song birds, wood peckers and neighborhood dogs being fined and arrested! 80 db is considered "normal" highway traffic noise level (why Harley had to meet that level under DOT standards). Sounds like you'd better have brought along your crepe soled shoes!
Should be interesting................. I'm sure all ya'all will make the best of it though.

I bet a bunch of old geezers got together and decided 80db is one half of 160db in terms of loudness. It isn't.
Hey! WOO HOO!!! Past the 60 day mark!!! It just drifted past with out even a notice!
Double the $$ saved & Cigs avoided for a more accurate reflection of me & Wifie too.
YA, RIGHT! "Vaping Doesn't help people quit!!!" Think AGAIN, propaganda spreaders!!! We owe it ALL to Moderen vaping gear!!!

Laying on the bed at the motel watching the talking heads pick apart the debates and town halls. The only thing they all agree on is nobody wants Trump, which of course means that's who they'll end up with.
Yep! That's the scary thing, it's gonna come down to Trump & Sillary! YIKES!!!The only thing they all agree on is nobody wants Trump, which of course means that's who they'll end up with.
Thank you, Mike! It really has been EASY!!! Most of the time we both actually vape MUCH LESS than we sucked on the stinkies. Sure there are days when I'm more like a HOOVER vacuum on the Subvod but there's ABSOLUTELY NO INTEREST in "the stinks" since DAY ONE!Congrats Von Vape! Nice going!
