[pct-l] Amazon.Com Resupply

[GottaWalk]

Daniel,

Did you have to make sure that a shipper other than USPS didn't ship to the PO? Is the PO now accepting packages addressed in care of general delivery from UPS? Did you try to ship to trail angels or motels along the way?

Thanks!
Marcia

Kendall,

We used Amazon with very good results on our 2013 thru-attempt. Most
economical to become a Prime member ($80/yr) which gives you free two-day
shipping of most items. Things like fuel canisters (and/or other hazardous
materials) have to go ground, so they're not included in Prime, and you
thus have to order them a couple of weeks out, but we got Chia seeds,
shoes, fuel, reading material, and tea, among other things, using Amazon
along the way.
