After helping drive many U.S. bookstore chains out of business, Amazon has been opening its own retail stores, starting in Seattle in late 2015.
Its first Amazon Books location in New York City opens Thursday morning in Manhattan’s Shops at Columbus Circle, which was previously home to a pretty large — and now closed — Borders Books and Music.
[...] It’s mostly books here, but there’s a gadget section for things like Amazon’s Echo devices, Alexa-compatible smart home gizmos, Kindles and tablets, and a dozen AmazonBasics items, including iPhone chargers and AAA batteries.

Yep. Why reward Amazon for killing the small mom & pop book shops, or reward them for treating workers like crap, or reward them by loss leading others into the gutter. Buying Amazon does not help the American worker, does not help your communities, and only enables the billionaire Owning class to keep fucking us more.
Always remember, Amazon doesn't respect the First Sale doctrine, and has usurped the authority of their own users over their own devices before.
Never trust them, and never pay them for shit.
Technically, lunchtime is at any moment. It's just a wave function.
