What should I buy with Subscribe & Save on Amazon?

May 24, 2012 11:43 PM

Right now I only buy cat food - and I figure there are probably quite a few other things I could be saving money and time buy using the service for. I've browsed a few times, but am wondering what other people use it for.

Fruit leather! http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_13?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=fruit+leather&sprefix=fruit+leather%2Caps%2C274

Mango's my favorite.

@cornellbigred: OOH! that looks awesome - and only 1 WW point each :) I am definitely going to try it out.

I used to use it for a lot of items but they've raised most of the prices in the last 6 months. Lately nothing on my S&S list is cheaper than I can get it for locally.

Prices are going up but some stuff is still cheaper. These Freeze dried fruits are fantastic. I love the pear and also the cinnamon apple.

@cornellbigred: Stretch Island fruit leathers are the best! The Kettle Valley used to be my go-to fruit when my kids were younger because they are softer and easier for smaller kids to eat -- not as tough leathery. But they've discontinued those off the Subscribe N Save, and you can only get them for obscene prices. $1.50 a strip?! Don't think so!

If you like the softer fruit, try the Clif Kids Twisted Fruit ropes. They are tart, but that's what the kids like.

I also have friends who rave about the gluten/allergy free offerings on Amazon.

Popchips are usually a good buy with S&S.

@minkeygirl7: oh I do like those. Maybe I will alternate them with the fruit leathers - every couple of months!

I get paper towels from Amazon and am making a list as to how long it takes to go through a case. Will probably do the S&S with those. Also with coffee. Have trouble finding Eight O'clock decaf. It's just easier and cheaper. And I'm considering toilet tissue, too.

Razor blades. One of the few things that make sense: they are priced below Costco or WalMart, they ship well, and you know more or less when you are going to need them.

@pooflady: Hmm I will have to check that out. I usually get that sort of stuff at BJs - I should price check.

Olive oil. You have to search a little, as not all brands offer subscribe and save. But you save 15% (currently, at least) on the ones that do.

I just signed up for vegan multivitamins. I just looked at the bottle of vitamins I get from the drug store here, and they contain fish oils. I'm allergic to fish and so this might account for the icky feeling I always get after taking vitamins. $5.09 for a three month supply isn't bad.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
