Doesn't work for my german amazon account.
My US account has no orders in 2006++
Not sure if happy or sad.

Just under 34k since 2006. I'd say the vast majority of that 34k was in the last 5 years.

Yeah some of you guys spend an absurd amount on Amazon. Only Lanx Lanx gets a pass because 86% of his house is amazonbasics

This is what happens when my wife doesn't control my finances. Now I'm not so sure it's a good thing.

I'm not even going to bother looking through the list of shit I bought. I'm already annoyed with things I ordered just this month, let alone in the last 5+ years.

Husqvarna LB146P.
Small repair shop that sells mainly Husqvarna is going out of business so they had big discounts. I wanted a new mower anyway because the old one the inlaws bought has a list of problems. Rev unstable, has a basket at the back that you have to empty, my wife can't start it because she has weak girl arms, and it's pretty beat up overall, mows like shit.

This new bad boy here starts at the snip of a finger, comparatively, has the BioClip blade so it just cuts the grass in tiny little pieces that rot, runs like a champ, and the lawn looks damn pretty after you're done with it.

I get my lawns mowed in half the time.

I'm at $33k since 1/1/2010. For some reason I can't get the report to go back to 2006. Fails every time I try.

The pace is accelerating in recent years though. I spent $4685 in 2018 and I'm at $2867 YTD this year.

Just under $5k a year isn't much considering I've been buying most things from them for a while. This includes a good chunk of birthday and Christmas presents, too. A lot into house maintenance and things of that nature.

I haven't bought a lot of household stuff in the past from Amazon. But you get good deals on oversize/overweight stuff due to free shipping so I've bought a decent amount of tooling for the lathe and mill, jigs, and tools for home use. I'm not one to buy paper towels just for the fact stuff that they used to ship in the partner deal with a shipper and the USPS would get held up at the post office for a week or more before it was delivered. Oversize and overweight stuff normally gets shipped Fedex or UPS and comes right to the door in 2 days. Grand total $19k.

amazon currently holds the title for cheapest per square on paper towels/toilet paper/kleenex when deals are announced, w/o clipping coupons (or it's the digital click coupon).

Got one of these with a $100 off coupon and discounted... apparently right before they went out of stock (probably clearing this model for a new model soon)...

Amazon product ASIN B078N2TSYS
Officially my Bday present for myself.
