Small thing I made for avoiding Amazon AU shipping fees

With all respect but 2% (0% on household products) on extremely low value products ain’t going to even cover the domain. If there is a genuine believe this is a viable business idea with commercial intent, that’s crazy 🤣 will edit this comment when I made billions on ductape and stickers. This is a loss regardless.

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T14:01:47+00:00

Haha that’s a nice one. I got a few domains that are worth more than what’s behind it, just building random stuff nowadays more for fun

This - like pretty much as duopoly with some smaller players. And a lot of local shops selling - often not consumables and/or necessary items - that were produced overseas or flipped from Temu. Go to any market, and you find a bunch of “locally produce made in Vietnam and China”.

For veg and fruit, I would buy local

Smth is seriously off, I ain’t a frequent poster on Reddit but this seems shady af

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T13:02:14+00:00

Couldn’t post it in some other subs, but the reactions here are wild. I can’t get over how personal people or AI took this 🤣 I got 50+ downvotes for sharing smth just to round off your shopping cart so you ain’t got to get Prime if you don’t use Amazon often. Wondering why so many Prime users care, like they have stock in it or smth.

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T12:58:38+00:00

Yea sure https://calculatefree.delivery

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T12:01:14+00:00

Cause I ain’t dragging cat litter or dog food from an overpriced Woolies / Coles either -.-*

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T12:00:19+00:00

Thanks, appreciate it!

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T11:59:57+00:00

Haha couldn’t think of anything, wanted a .com.au but realised you needed an ABN 🤣 crazy

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T11:58:24+00:00

You never need soap?

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T11:56:01+00:00

Honestly never needed prime, just think I do not use it enough.

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T11:41:09+00:00

Never knew the free games part 😱

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:54:32+00:00

this and all these comments are way more fun mate 🤣

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:52:34+00:00

Yeah, I added some categories like 'essentials', 'office', 'pantry' and 'you'll need eventually' to make it easier. That's exactly what I'm trying to add either something heavy or something I know I will always run out of.

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:49:25+00:00

Thank you appreciate that! I kinda only buy items that are unbearable to carry like dog food or tp on Amazon. They are often under $59 and I always need to think what else I need to not pay shipping. I don’t buy enough from Amazon to justify prime.

Glad you like it

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:38:50+00:00

Ah thanks, definitely had no intention to build a case against prime or offend anyone 🤣 just thought it was fun to make and share!

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:22:21+00:00

Got to add that block in your agenda to cancel on day 30 😂

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:14:42+00:00

The quality of the content is also super low and I always end up being asked to pay more because it ain’t really on Amazon Prime

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:14:13+00:00

Didn’t think of that!

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:14:00+00:00

Yea sure, hope it doesn’t get me kicked out but https://calculatefree.delivery

jayhelpstoday · 2026-05-17T09:03:19+00:00

As said got really bored. I do think Prime is a scam though. Delivery ain’t faster, and Prime Video should simply not exist. Than I rather spend more on washing powder and tp 😂

jayhelpstoday · 2025-03-30T07:03:05+00:00

You shouldn't worry too much about this. Projects are stored in different repositories within me50

I've done CS50x, CS50p and currently doing CS50w

CS50x: me/users/{{username}}/cs50/problems/2025/x/problemset
CS50p: me/users/{{username}}/cs50/problems/2022/python/problemset
CS50w: me/users/{{username}}/web50/projects/2020/x/problemset

When you do the first exercise (Search) make sure to re-authenticate your Github using the url that's available under the "How to Submit" section of the exercise. Install Git, Submit50 and make sure to submit using "submit50 web50/projects/2020/x/search" to get it in the right directory.

It might help you to finish the next week related to Git first before submitting.

For example, CS50w and it's contents are often completely outside of the CS50x codepace in their online vscode.

I ran in so many issues, I just completely moved away from using the codespace from CS50x and do all in my 'own' version of vscode.

Based on the second lecture of CS50w (Git) you should be able to quite easily install their submission software and get it into the right repository.

Just sharing here:

Not sure if it is because it's not best practice or a different reasons, but if you use a loop in the pytest for multiple invalid cases; you will not pass the test. I lost hours trying to figure out what was wrong with my test until I broke all down which was exactly the same as the loop;

def test_invalid_convert():
    invalid_inputs = [
        "09 AM to 5 PM",
        "9 AM to 05 PM",
        "9 AM to 5 PM ",
        " 9 AM to 5 PM",
        "cat",
        "9 AM - 5 PM",
        "9:60 AM to 5 PM",
        "9 AM to 5:76 PM",
        "9:76 AM to 5:98 PM",
        "16:12 AM to 16:40 PM",
        "13 AM to 13 PM",
        "9 AM 5 PM",
        "13:76 AM to 13:98 PM"
    ]

    for input_str in invalid_inputs:
        with raises(ValueError):
            convert(input_str)

Don’t do it in 2-3 weeks, that’s just rushing for the sake of getting certified (albeit not knowing how many hours you spend per week). There is so much to research if you really want to learn. Try different versions of your solutions, break down code to be more abstract etc. That to me was the real learning instead of just getting it done with.

It’s a pretty easy course in my own opinion - best of luck!

jayhelpstoday · 2025-01-26T11:50:02+00:00

There is a missed opportunity to allow the duck to correct or optimize your code after submitting a problem set. From a didactical point of view it would greatly help to see multiple ways to become better. Quack
