Yes, and for me it's not so much about getting the items faster, it's knowing what day the items will arrive before I put the order in. Sometimes I'll delay an order by a day or two so that they will arrive on a day that I know I will be working from home. I've actually been annoyed the couple of times an item came unexpectedly in 1 day instead of 2.
