    Amazon Prime

    So my yearly membership is up on the 16th. I forgot for months that I even had it.

    I need some ideas on what to take advantage of in the next week or if anyone can give me +ev reasons to pay the $100 to keep it for another year. I don't do much shopping online, anyone suggest anything to get that free 2-day shipping before I'm done?

    I watched prime a ton the first few months I got a tv in the bedroom because I didn't want to put cable in there, now it's mostly Netflix. Not a big tv show watcher unfortunately.

    The "free" 2 day shipping/4.99 next day should be reason enough, but the savings you get from buying through amazon speaks for itself, more +ev than sbr pro...

    I need to realize some things I should start buying online then. I'm personally just not finding anything worth the membership at the moment.

    Heahphones were a hell of a find though.

    dude, you can live off of amazon, if degenerate gamblers aren't ordering ass wipes off of amazon then they need to step up their game...

    Hahah. I unfortunately, or fortunately, have just about everything I want or need. The only things I buy nowadays are works of art from local dealers, physical silver and commemorative coin sets. I've been searching for a good half hour now though trying to find other deals out there to take advantage of.

    For my family, Prime is amazing. My wife reads about 3 books a week, so Prime and free shipping is sweet. Plus awhile back I ordered more weights for the home gym, and that was +ev because the shipping was free on something that was heavy.

    Other than ordering a lot of stuff, Prime isn't worth it unless you like the movies and series that come with it.

    Personally... I don't see any value in purchasing PRIME for the year. Bless you guys who see the superior value.... I don't see the value. There's hardly any movies to download that has any value. I'm not a book reader... that might be the problem. And... the 2 day Shipping only is good if you're a shopoholic... I'm not though..

    But...

    But...

    There is huge value to get PRIME on the Free 30 day trial. Just make sure you cancel before your 30 days is up.

    I was looking at shoes today, might buy a pair before the week is up. Clothes for the most part I'll only buy in person. So far I'm thinking a few hundred easy this week of goods before making the decision to keep it.

    Would it be worth half price for you. There are ways you can get the $49 college prime

    I'm in a Masters program full time, still says the charge is $99. I'm pretty sure my membership is a student one.

    Same happened to me .Contact them via live chat and let them know you're still in school. They'll cut the price in half

    And I order everything on Amazon. Saves me a trip to that shit hole Walmart. Plus, the amazon video movies/series selection is almost as good as netflix

    I do literally all of my shopping except for groceries at Amazon. I had prime when it was $80 a year and last year they upped it to $100 and I still stayed in. I used to make a killing on it when I hardly ever had sales tax collected but since Feb my state has collected tax so it's not as great as it was.

    Still the free shipping on things you buy plus Prime has almost all of the HBO series now available makes me want to keep it. Their movie selection kinda sucks tho.
