AMAZON PRIME SALES?

Tinkrbl44 · ‎08-23-2010

I probably only purchase something on Amazon about once a year. I much prefer Ebay.

I'm getting all sorts of email ads for Prime sales, and am not sure what they want. Is this to entice you to join their Prime .... or is this just for current Prime members?

i don't know what you get, but the emails I received actually didn't clarify that. I'm sure someone here knows the facts.

Anyone? TIA!

@Tinkrbl44 I always buy from Amazon, rarely from e-bay. I bought a new stick vacuum today, some facial cleaner, new mop heads for my spin mop, and a few other small items.

There are some reallly good buys and what is best about Amazon, if I am not happy with it, I go down to the UPS store a mile and a half away and send it back almost always free, usually don't even have to box it up! Now that is service!

I order regularly from Amazon. I got fantastic deals today on my usuals. Great savings. I could use a new tv, but I'll wait until cyber Monday for that.

Both! The sale prices are only for Prime members, but they're hoping when you see what great deals they have you'll sign up and pay for Prime.

@Tinkrbl44 : I love Amazon prime and purchase more instead of eBay. My Amazon emails are based on my previous purchase history.

Today purchased a 7 quart Hamilton Beach Crockpot for my SIL anniversary. For me, extra large exercise mat to use under my chair for my cubii and my chair exerciser, organizer for drinking cups, lids, straws, paper plates and napkins. I compared prices with the Walmart deals for the next few days and Amazon had the best prices.

I buy a lot from Amazon....dog food, dog treats, coffee, car parts for DH, hearing aid batteries, baking ingredients, kitchen stuff and the list goes on.

I prefer Amazon because I do not have to tip the delivery people. I used to order dog food from a pet store and it used to come UPS. Then they started to use grubhub or some other delivery service. No, I am not tipping.

The stores do not carry the dog food I use in their local stores, or I'd just go get it myself.

Today I checked to see if anything I needed was reduced...nope.

I ordered a gallon of castor oil...how exciting and not on sale, but I needed it ( for my lawn)

I bought a TV for my bedroom. I didn't want one in the bedroom when hubs was alive since he was a night owl and I had to wake up early for work. Now I think I might enjoy it. Less than 80$ so I thought i'd give it a try.
