04.20.26 Subscription-Free Security Cameras / Fast vs. Free Delivery

Security cameras can work well to help protect your home and safety. Clark references Consumer Reports and CNET reviews highlighting quality, DIY camera options that offer motion alerts and peace of mind without the recurring bill.  Also today - Online purchases mean delivery decisions, amid offerings of ultra-fast delivery from Amazon and its e-commerce competitors. Clark warns that there is nothing "free" about shipping. The trend is to receive items the day you order them, often in hours. But there’s another option that goes the opposite way - delayed delivery for less money. That trend is your friend.
