Sun late
Discovered a pretty cool service this weekend: MaxDelivery, they deliver groceries, drugstore essentials and a few other things to any address below 34th St in Manhattan within an hour. And there is no delivery charge if your order is over $75, otherwise they charge a reasonable $2.95, plus there is no need to tip. Pretty good stuff. I tested it out, and sure enough, they showed up at my apartment door within about 20 minutes, amazing.
Continues to be super-cold, temperature around 22 F right now. Tomorrow will suck, the forecast is a high of 23 F (!) and a low of 16 F, yuck.
BTW, this weekend I've noticed more than ever Amazon's constant game with pricing. I was looking a an item that was $20 (every other vendor sold it for $40), added it to my cart, removed it, looked at others, came back, and sure enough the price had changed to $40 (doubled) within minutes. Same thing happened again looking at an end table, it was $36 and after looking at others for a few minutes and coming back it had changed to $54. I had noticed this before, and I think the site says prices get updated once per hour, but it seems to be getting a little out of had, makes you feel the pricing presented is unreliable because it could change any minute.
