To Amazon Prime or NOT to Amazon Prime

Sorry if Q, but I'm on the fence about doing the whole Amazon Prime thing. Seems like getting rid of Netflix all but pays for it, but wanted to ask the opinions of others in this Mecca of awesome knowledge called Chiefs Planet..

Is Amazon Prime really worth it over eBay when you buy, let's say, 5-7 items a month? I ask because I always do the "price+shipping" deal, so it seem like it's a wash at some level. That being said, "Prime" would ALWAYS mean two-day shipping, and that's something I hardly ever do on eBay, so it could be a deal that makes it worth it enough to buy 15-20 things a month. The whole "eliminating some of the instant gratification culture/concern" deal...


Oh, and I've heard that if you use an "edu" account it's free for six months (perhaps not a big deal over a lifetime!!), but is then like half the cost. Does anybody know if that's true? If so, and it' the son who has the "edu" account, how does "Dad" pull off that scam without having the kid able to buy pretty-much anything he's ever wanted?

Thanks in advance... Just looking for some opinions before I leap...

We are usually home when UPS shows up as they deliver between 5-7 pm in our neighborhood.

It's been a few times a week for the past few months! It was a lady training the other day and the dude training her made her carry my smoker to our door which goes around an L bend in the sidewalk. She's gonna hate us.

I thought about this on Monday. I have had stuff delivered damn near every day for 10+ days.

I am sure they would appreciate me being able to at least order in better groups.

I'm just stunned at the number of boxes we have to toss. There's a part of the Amazon missing because of me!

And with the App, it's scary, I ****ing bought turn signal bulbs "Prime" (saved $.40 and tax!!) and they came in a box that a can of beer could fit in.

I ordered some pool timer switches for a bit over $2. Probably cost them more to ship.

Amen brother.... I'm still on the tank of gas from two weeks ago. I've not been out ONCE to shop for Xmas! If there was Amazon Prime wrapping paper, I'd pay them to wrap ship in it! Even if it's for me!

Between teleworking (yeah, I'm all over that shit these days!!!) and Amazon, I may not shower again for a year!

I love the Xmas cheer in this thread.... "Whatever it takes to keep me from shopping"! LOL, we suck!

If it weren't for food, bars and a few other things, I'd weld the door shut!

It sort of makes prison seem not as bad! Think of all the shopping you don't have to do! And with the internet, you can Prime your ass off!

I have a free month of prime and can't even find anything to buy. not a chance I am buying groceries on it. Most of what I found doesn't even compare to what I can get locally price wise.
