Average American spends THREE THOUSAND DOLLAR year at Amazon. That’s staggering.

Is it? That’s by households, not individuals. Is it really crazy to imagine a household spending $200-300/month at Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods—or Amazon?

I spend $200-300 per week at whole foods, much to my own chagrin and moral discomfort.

That's on food and consumable household stuff. I imagine some people do all of that shopping through Amazon. But on average?

I spent $3000 at borders bookstore in one year, back in the day. But Amazon gets about $100 a year from me.
