CA to CA shipping

have 2 shipping methods available for amazon, standard and expedited. i need something to get here by the end of next week but expedited shipping cost an extra $40... standard shipping estimate is one day before the end of next week through the first week of march.. but the item is shipping from CA, which is where i am.
so should i just go with standard shipping? the item is fairly small if thats a factor to consider.

Go standard and you'll probably get it at the beginning of next week depending on the seller.
Or get prime and get everything in two days.

Yeah California seems to have privileged knowledge of such things.
Whenever I get anything in the mail from close to where I live, it seems to take 2 or 3 days to arrive.

It depends where you are in CA and what you are ordering. If you are in LA/OC area and it's from Amazon directly, it's likely you will get it next day or within 2 days regardless of the shipping speed as that's where one of their main warehouses is. Usually I will order stuff at 11pm at night and it will be on my doorstep the next day when I get home from work, because it's shipping from like 25 miles away. That's with Prime though. I almost never have to wait 2 days for an Amazon prime shipment. It's almost always there the next day. Although I seem to recall getting stuff just as fast in the past with standard shipping, or maybe a day extra.
If you are in Norcal, or you are ordering from a 3rd party through Amazon, all bets are off, then expect standard shipping times of 2-5 business days depending on the seller.

It was a joke about labels like these, which California seems to require to be slapped on just about everything:
