Help! We're Being Attacked By Butter Chicken!!!

A couple years ago, a friend of mine discovered a seasoning packet for butter chicken curry sauce that she thought I might like.  I did, indeed--so much so that I picked up as many packets as I could find at Cost Plus.  meanwhile, my friend had also tried it, loved it, and began stalking Cost Plus for it as well.  This--combined with other people finding and liking it as well--might have prompted a retailer to increase its stock of an item, but Cost Plus held firm.  Even if they ran short of an item every single week, they refused to increase the weekly supply.  I'm sure this makes sense to them for some reason, but we were left without butter chicken.

Butter chicken remains one of the--if not THE ONLY--convenience food that is "legal" on our diet.  Rather than face a shortage--which, trust me, would have led to a few rough moments here at Chateau Sutton-Goar, I started ordering it from Amazon.  They truly carry everything.

On the Amazon page, one can subscribe to butter chicken--how cool is that.  So, in March I signed us up to receive 3 boxes every 3 months--which would get a great discount and average one packet a week.  JUST a few days later...

 Butter chicken on our doorstep!  Very cool!  Then last week:

MORE butter chicken.  Not so cool.  Now obviously, I love this stuff.  BUT there's no way I want it 18 times every month.  I don't even want chocolate that often.

I logged on to Amazon, and while I couldn't find a place to CHANGE my subscription, but I did discover that Amazon was getting ready to send me three more boxes in May.  Not knowing what else to do, I canceled it with the following note:

      Dear Amazon:

     For the love of God, stop.  I asked for a subscription of three boxes every three months, and while generally I applaud rapid shipping, you are now 5 months ahead, which is a BIT extreme even for the biggest overachiever.  Not that there's anything wrong with that, but we are trying to NOT be eating overachievers, so until we can catch up, please stop sending us butter chicken.  We have run out of chickens and storage space.

If we get another box in June, I suppose that will mean that Amazon has no sense of humor.....
