But there's probably some sort of similar discount/bargain stores that I'm not aware of. My cube also cost $9 something, so that's about the same. I actually only need one right now, so I'm good. But thanks! Maybe if I was making Rubik's Cube murals like these guys: http://www.space-invaders.com/rubikubism.html Hmm, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of Big Lots before, so maybe we don’t have them here.

I KNOW where all the Rubik's Cubes are hiding! I stopped at Big Lots (do y'all have Big Lots there? Discount-ish bargain-y place.) last night in search of a toaster oven (always check Big Lots first!) and I went through the toy section. I was looking for a treat for my pen pal (part of a literacy program at work)and there on the wall hung about 50 authentic Rubik's Cubes! I don't know how much you paid for yours, but they were $9.50. Products often go to Big Lots when companies are ready to change the packaging. So, maybe the Cube Dudes are getting ready to do something glitzy... If you want to stock up, let me know! I'll ship 'em to ya! Eric! I KNOW where all the Rubik’s Cubes are hiding!

But, if you really really want the item same day, most people would be willing to pay more than overnight...Just so they could have it sooner. Its kind of like the difference between overnight by 10:30am and overnight by 3:30pm...No extra cost is involved (usually) on part of the courier, but they charge more because you want it more.

I assume that it'll only be offered if they have the item in stock at a local warehouse, in which case they just have to drive it over. One-day shipping costs so much because it usually involves an airplane flight. I’m not sure if it would actually cost more than 1-day shipping.

I can't wait until they do that in my area... I would think this has to be some kind of beta program. Enjoy it while it is only the cost of two-day shipping. Once it becomes an option at checkout, it will probably cost more than one-day shipping. Thats awesome! I can’t wait until they do that in my area…
