I ordered the CD version of 2021 TurboTax.
The download version of TurboTax Deluxe last night. No issue with installation. And if the HD dies in the meantime I can download it again if needed so no real need for the CD anyway. Which is good, because the CD drive died a while back, blowing it out of dust didn't fix it, so unless some dire need arises I'm not going to replace it.

I planned to support local business and buy the first three items at the Hallmark store in town, but it turns out they are closed on Sundays.
Will you be getting these items on Monday?
Because I would still be going to the Hallmark on Monday and getting those items.
National chains like Hobby Lobby and Chick-Fil-A are also closed on Sundays for religious reasons.
Meanwhile, Amazon will deliver all my items tomorrow, and I can get the items wrapped tomorrow and ship them out first thing Tuesday.
You must have Prime.
Since I don't, I'd probably get delivery on Wednesday if I am lucky.
I have found that Amazon prices are sometimes higher than other places.
It pays to compare.
Yesterday, I bought a MC4 to 5.5mm x 2.1mm adapter cable on eBay.
The same exact thing from Acopower is $15.99 on Amazon + shipping.
I paid $13.85 including tax and shipping on eBay.
3 bathroom faucets to go with the cabinet refacing and new sinks I'm having installed. I love those "waterfall" faucets, where the water dispenses from the top of the faucet rather than through a tube. This is where the convenience of Amazon kicks in: I had models in mind, and checked out a couple of home stores, but none of them had those models. I was able to order the models, compare them on the spot, and send back the one, while ordering another of the model I preferred.
