It was 35, almost one a week. > Due to the fact that neither my Son or I have a vehicle and don't drive and all the major stores are too far to pay cab fare, I use Amazon extensively . I have Amazon Prime so get free shipping and 2 day delivery on most items plus All the free movies I want on Prime video with Amazon Alexa , Friday the 18th I ordered 2 reams of Hammermill printer paper and received it yesterday the 19th, 1 day, Whats not to like! In the last 4 years I have placed the following number of orders. This year 56 2019 77 2018 35 2017 34 Out of all those I have had One DOA sound bar which was replaced in 3 days. So you see my satisfaction with Amazon is great, and my shipping costs are near nil . saving me a bundle, YMMV. Rene
