What's the strangest thing you've ordered from Amazon?
... that you'll admit to?

I'm actually considering ordering rye bread from Amazon. It's supposed to be a really good option of diabetics, but I haven't been able to find any store locally that sells a whole grain rye, and I'm just about ready to give up looking. This bread only comes in packs of a dozen loaves though.... I'll have to hook up a second fridge just for the freezer space.

Whole Grain Rye Bread

That's the strangest thing I've ever ordered....that I'll admit to anyway.

I was surprised to see today that Amazon sells Gevalia coffee. I think the primary appeal is Amazon's free shipping for orders over $25.

I have a Newfoundland dog and it is a MIRACLE on her! I gave my Mom a furminator for her medium haired cat and it made a big difference in shedding amounts

Arggghh! Geographical restrictions again. They won't send those things to France! Our cats would just LOVE something like that....

But the company doesn't appear to make a furminator for donkeys. Now THAT's something I really need. Our one donkey takes all summer to shed out - never does lose all last winter's coat before he starts to re-grow his fur for the fall.

Thanks guys! I am going to order it now. My girl friend said that it'll work well on furniture to get rid of cat hair also. My 2 boys are going to love it!
