Amazon taking on NTUC in Spore

An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

I received an email from Amazon about them shipping personal care products for FREE to Spore on order of US$125+

Here are the items:

Bathroom tissues, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...e_epc__1p_0_ti (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007UZNS5W/ref=pe_367160_136254550_pe_epc__1p_0_ti)
Pampers, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...e_epc__1p_1_ti (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005DLCJX2/ref=pe_367160_136254550_pe_epc__1p_1_ti)
Dishwashing detergent, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...e_epc__1p_2_ti (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GLXKDPC/ref=pe_367160_136254550_pe_epc__1p_2_ti)
Pampers Swadlers, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...e_epc__1p_3_ti (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DFFT76U/ref=pe_367160_136254550_pe_epc__1p_3_ti)
Kleenax tissues 3 ply, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...e_epc__1p_4_ti (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008YD8232/ref=pe_367160_136254550_pe_epc__1p_4_ti)
Paper Towels, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...e_epc__1p_5_ti (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BGN8PLG/ref=pe_367160_136254550_pe_epc__1p_5_ti)

I'm actually surprised that Amazon is able to offer FREE shipping because these are bulky items. Other than the price there is the convenience If they can ship to a persons door step. I'm sure people dislike carrying large bulky items on a bus.

In the past NTUC had a monopoly in Spore but with Amazon getting serious about expanding worldwide, NTUC may be in trouble.
