SO rants & raves

Re: SO rants & raves

  • Does anyone have a dash button and like it? That is like an actually button you have at your house and can press right?

  • @Louise_Belcher okay, I just looked up the dash buttons because I was curious...you don't have to have a physical button to push, you can do it from your phone's app or on their website. You can purchase the wifi button to have at home if you want though.

  • I don't understand Amazon Dash buttons, but I'll definitely look into chewy.com. Thanks!
  • @SWE2 @BabyMC517 @Jens_Hoes @nda_roxybabe @Louise_Belcher @SKZW (wow tag mania) I set up a general shopping list on Amazon Prime for essentials like Advil, Razors, Pet Foods (On subscription), Brita Filters, batteries, basically anything we replace all the time so we can just log on at 3 am in exhaustion when we suddenly realize we're out and order for next day delivery with the click of a button!  Anytime in the last month I've remembered something new, I add it.

    In the garage we have stocked up on:
    TP
    Paper Towels
    Dish soap
    Trash Bags
    All Detergents
    Cat Litter
    Pet food (the rest we may order on Amazon for the first couple months) 
    Pet prescriptions
    Coffee
    Creamer (the non-dairy kind keeps forever in the fridge)
    Makeup staples (for me that's foundation, powder)

    I also set up a favorites list on Sephora.com for the fancier stuff so I can log on and order fast without having to search for it.  I realize this has digressed away from SO Rants & Raves.  Sorry!!

  • Just to continue the digression... another essential I plan to stock up on is paper plates and maybe even some plastic silverware for days I just don't think I can stand to do dishes or guests come over etc. I've always wanted a dash button but it does seem like asking for trouble!
    Thank you for reminding to pick up this stuff! I had this idea months ago and look at me, with no paper plates in my house...
    From what I've read about the physical dash button is that every time it's pushed, it sends you an email, and you get x amount of time to cancel the order, like 24 hours, before it's processed. This way when the husbands actually help around the house and push the button after you already took care of it, you won't get 2 of the same thing.
  • Totally getting more paper plates and plasticware. We had some when we first moved and still have a bunch of plates left, but definitely need some of the plasticware! Our dishwasher is so loud (maintenance is hopefully coming to look at it tomorrow) that I don't want to mess with it for a little bit with a newborn. I know they need to get used to noises and all, but if we can't sit in the living room with it running I'm not sure how well he'll do in his nursery which is right across from the kitchen...

  • @nda_roxybabe Ah!!! The built in toddlerproof makes it far less scary to own a physical button. Because if something even remotely looks like a button he will press it a hundred times!

  • I have a rave finally! 
    H cleaned out my car (vacuumed and detailed) and installed the car seat today.

    i also have a small rant though, he then came inside playing with DS running around the house, when he stepped (jumped?) onto a belt that he had left on the floor puncturing 1/2 an inch into his foot, so I've been playing nurse to his blunt force trauma injury and had to bandage and ice it for him -.- good thing blood doesn't worry me

    @PartiallyDomesticated: Wow, that sounds painful! How did your son react to that? ... And hooray for a nice clean car---you're one step closer to ready!
  • @PartiallyDomesticated, I'm so jealous that he cleaned the car for you! I've mentioned that I want that done a bunch of times, but I have a feeling I'll be doing it.
