So. Textbooks on amazon.ca cost about half as much as the ones at the UT bookstore. However, it appears that the free shipping is free because it is completely useless.

According to the website, my books arrived in Mississauga on September 13th. MISSISSAUGA. I COULD GO TO MISSISSAUGA AND GET THEM. IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT TWO HOURS. WHY ARE THEY NOT HERE YET.

Also, please stop telling me that my books will arrive on September 18th. THAT WAS YESTERDAY. SERIOUSLY AMAZON YOU'RE NOT HELPING. OH AND THANKS FOR TOTALLY DISRUPTING MY STUDY SCHEDULE AND STRESSING ME THE FUCK OUT IN THE SECOND WEEK OF CLASSES I REALLY NEEDED THAT.

In other news, I'm going to Montreal for the Claire's birthday. Yay! Please don't attempt to contact me.

hmm. generally amazon.ca free shipping is fairly good. i'm not sure how this works with condos (i think it depends on your concierge policy) but what may have happened is that with certain packages (in my experience it is totally random, not done exactly by weight or by price, though it is more often with expensive stuff), canada post won't actually deliver without the signature of the creditcard holder/recipient. instead they drop it off at your designated postal outlet and then a card is mailed to you that you have to bring (with id) to pick up the books. but this card business takes at least 2 days to get in the mail, sometimes over a week (i suspect i have a crappy post office) and is horribly frustrating when you obsessively track packages as much as i do and can see that your books are sitting 2 blocks away from you and you're still waiting for the card to pick them up and you try and can't get them without the card and really need them.
