Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Happy Birthday Amy and Annabel!
I just tried to order a bookcase from IKEA. The bookcase was $59.99. The shipping came to $295.17. That's a no. Just ordered a different one from Target, which has free shipping.

Eeek on the shipping... while IKEA furniture might be smart and stylish for its price, you might as well shop at Crate & Barrel for that kind of overall price.
I bought myself a book on Java programming so I need to sit down with it and see if it indeed clears up any of my problems....

IKEA shipping is pretty notoriously expensive. Before there was a store up in Frisco, people used to drive down to Houston to pick up their pre-ordered furniture.

Yeah, I don't have a car, a Zipcar would be at least $50 for the amount of time I'd need to get to IKEA and back, and I'm already begging friends with cars for a ride to Passover shopping, which is more of a priority than bookshelves right now. But shipping being several times the cost of the item is just ridiculous.

Yeah, I took a Zipcar to Ikea once. Once. Still a lot cheaper than shipping, but just getting an actual rental car would cost less, and not be so stressful in terms of getting it back in time.

Yeah. Zipcar is pretty good for grocery shopping somewhere relatively within the neighborhood, but not so good for going out of the city.

We don't have zipcar which is another reason the "just tow the uninsureds' cars" people piss me off.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
In NYC, at least, I have yet to find a rental car agency with a lower weekend day rate than most Zipcars. (Or anywhere at all that will let you return a rental car on Sunday except to the airport.) So I love it for day trips.
