I'm Not a Cheapskate

Well, not a big one. I'm a minor cheapskate. But still. When I have an online shopping order that totals $65, and shipping costs are THIRTY DOLLARS, well, the math is insulting.

What's more insulting is that because I'd already sunk 45 minutes into meticulous shopping -- Christmas presents, natch -- on my agonizingly slow computer that often took three days (give or take) to load a page, I paid it.

So consider this a public service announcement. These assholes charge a hell of a lot for shipping.
