Happy Monday Everyone! it's a mostly sunny day here today so that automatically makes me smile.
I think I mentioned that last week I put in an online order with Hobby Lobby. Their yarn was on sale and I was looking for a pretty pink so I could make a blanket for my cousins new baby., In addition to the yarn, I also got some nice hand towels for the bathroom, and a small picture frame. Hobby Lobby was offering free shipping on $59 (used to be $50) so I placed my order and it arrived this morning.
I was so excited to open it but noticed that the shipping label said.....
shipped by Amazon!!!
What?? how could that be?
I went into my Hobby Lobby account and it had my order and tracking number and the date it was shipped. When I hit track order it immediately said it was out for delivery and the link said Amazon.
I am totally perplexed and is Amazon now taking over the world??

Wow, that is weird. Maybe they are just taking over Hobby Lobby's shipping..if that is the case, then the shipping rate should be 35.00 instead of 59 or whatever Amazon's free shipping rate is. I don't know cuz I have Prime.

I'm still shaking my head over it. Everything in the box is Hobby Lobby but the label is Amazon.
You're right though about the shipping. I also have Amazon Prime and it should have been free if that's the case. I wish I had seen if it was an Amazon truck that left the package

I have had that happen to before. I wonder if you somehow purchased it through a third party seller.

Sometimes it happens when ordering from Walmart as well, I suppose many sites use Amazon depending on the products.

I am not surprised, I’ve heard of others who ordered items from a private company and they were shipped by Amazon. Honestly, the mail delivery here is so erratic and beyond terrible I would welcome Amazon bringing it. I’m certainly no expert, but I don’t see how the mail service will ever be fixed unless a miracle takes place!

I use Ebay for all my online orders & Got things shipped from
Amazon, & the shipping is sometimes free or less than 10 $
it's not very often I get stuff that comes from Amazon but it happens.
