[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do not have a Prime Membership and never have. Honestly, I haven’t bought a thing from them since Christmas. You can still order from them, but you must spend $50 to get free shipping. And, be aware that delivery will take longer. I am not convinced Amazon is cheaper, but it is easy and convenient.

You need a different mindset when making your store list. For example, when you have 6 rolls of paper towel left, you add paper towels to the Costco list.

And Prime is about $10 a month so it is not free shipping at all...non prime deliveries are often 2 days as well especially around the holidays (though you can not count on it).  Prime is fine but know it is just convenient.  It is not necessarily cheaper.  I shocked my family by having a new phone on the same day...yeah I drove to Best Buy, picked it up and was home in 20 minutes.  [/quote]
Prime does provide other services too.  I am sticking with Prime because I've used it as cloud storage for all of my photos and videos for years.  The free shipping and videos is really an add on to my use of their cloud storage.  It would be a huge hassle to move all of my data, so I'm going to stay.  I don't think any of the other big tech options that I could move to are really any better.[/quote]
