My dad told me something interesting today.

It seems, in the not so distant past, if you ordered something, it could take as long as three months to actually get it! Nowadays, I get pissed if it takes four days! Do any of you older members remember those days? He said, he would have to order things in September to guarantee they'd arrive by Christmas! Lol

Amazon seems to be taking longer to get stuff to you than they used to.

Catalog shopping in the past took much longer.

@OverTheHill I think it was mostly done by check through the mail?

@WizardofOz Yes, but you could use a credit card too.

@OverTheHill Yeah, but didn't you have to mail the numbers to the company? Or could you do it over the phone?

@WizardofOz Both.
