Wow, you must live near one of their warehouses to get things that fast. I've enjoyed Prime, too. It's not really totally necessary most times, but what's most worth it for me is the nearly last-minute Christmas shopping I can do, especially with the $3.99 1-day shipping, which is a steal. I usually only buy enough in any given year to make the shipping average out to about $5 per item, but that's still less than it would cost me to get 2-day shipping without Prime.

@Feliciti Yes....I live only miles from several distribution warehouses around me.....Seattle Wa. area.....Amazons home base🤗

I recently( within the last 4 months) joined Amazon Prime.... NOW I see why it is so popular...

I can find almost everything I need... at a great price .... free shipping and get the item(s) the same day I order in most cases.

Why wait 7 to ten days for something you can have NOW?

I agree! Amazon is The Best!!

I've had Prime since the very beginning and I have never looked back. And Prime just keeps on getting better and better. With Primenow, I an get many things, especially groceries delivered in 2 hours...for free.

Between Amazon and QVC, if they don't sell it; you don't need it!

Oh, ain't that the truth!

. Yesterday I ordered two things in the morning and they were at my door by 6pm! I have got to say it is going to be hard for other companies to compete with this free same day delivery. I think people like the get it NOW Philosophy of Amazon.... and The $99 I payed for the year has long been payed for with all the free shipping and services I get with Prime.

I held out for awhile coming from the old school of Boomers... but now I SEE THE LIGHT!

If you have been holding out as I was for so long.. give the free trial month a try. Why Not?

I hope you also see the light that with AMAZON taking over every aspect of retail, many businesses will go under and people will be out of work.

I'm one of the few here that isn't all that impressed with Amazon in general, so I won't be paying for prime anytime soon.

I've had wrong orders, lost orders, trouble getting refunds on lost orders (actually delivered to another state, and someone I don't know). They tend to ship Fed Ex, which I hate, as they leave the boxes in the driveway in the rain (we have a huge covered porch just ten paces up the front walk, but they can't figure that out). And when you order from a vendor on Amazon, forget any kind of customer service in resolving the problem.

If I want fast shipping I go to Walmart now for many things. Free, within two days, and no annual fee.

@Mominohio I get everything from Amazon by UPS. I am sorry you have had problems, as I havn't. I have had to call a few times regarding items, but I received refunds right away. I am not Prime subscriber, I pay them enough money without a yearly fee on top of it.

@Mominohio I am surprised to hear this. I have had a couple of problems over the years but they have corrected it as soon as possible and each time they have given me a 15% -20% discount on my next order. I do have a note on my account requesting that all packages be left on the porch, however they usually ship UPS to me. I agree with you about Fed EX in general. They left a gift of fruit sent to us last year as a gift in a flower bed.

Seriously? That is your solution? You must have no business sense whatsoever.

I'm disabled and to me, Amazon is a godsend. I've had Prime for years, love my 2 day shipping and my free music channels for Alexa. They made a mistake once (they included two items instead of 1), they told me to keep the extra. It truly fits my needs.
