  Same. At first it was hard to break the habit of just buying the first item that didn’t look fake off of Amazon, but you get used to it and I’m not second guessing my sanity that often. It might cost more, but it’s no marketplace dropshipping and I’m not impulse buying crap.

  This. Use Amazon to find the brand, and go to their website to buy directly. The seller website is the same price on the surface, but you can almost always get a coupon that’s cheaper than Amazon. (Amazon FBA charges like 30%)

  Same.

  It’s amazing how much money our family has saved the past couple of months alone, just be deciding we won’t patronize Amazon and Target now (in addition to Walmart).
