 Amazon grocery delivery service briefly as it turned out, lowered their
 minimum order for free delivery to $50 from multiple hundreds. So I tried
 it a couple weeks ago and they not only added on a seven dollar delivery
 fee but they added on a five dollar tip neither of which they told you
 about until you got the receipt after you got the groceries. They then
 raised the minimum order up to 100 bucks.
 
 I contested the delivery fee and got it refunded, but I let the tip slide
 because I figured it wasn’t the delivery person‘s fault
 

Good on you for contesting the delivery fee. Free means free so the idea
of them charging you $7 for free delivery is ridiculous.
 
As for letting the tip slide, I agree, it wasn't the delivery person's
fault. (I'm assuming it was a human making the delivery, not some kind
of robot.)

That'll be the next thing. You get charged an automatic tip and it's a drone
that delivers your package. Not only will Skynet subjugate us, it will expect
us to pay for the privilege.
