  • I may be an oddball, if they offer me a $1 credit to use on digital purchases I take it. Most things I order, it doesn't matter to me if I get it in 2 or 5 days.

Nope @Jordan2  you are not the odd ball...I usually go for the digital credit because I like to play games on my kindle and it comes in handy when I need to get more livesWoman LOL Then there are the items I really want quickly.

i dont mind either, but i DO mind paying money up front to have a years worth of fast shipping. that is my only issue. otherwise, i would just spend the $35 minimum to get the free shipping.

I don't have Prime but usually buy items that ship free with a $25 order.  Sometimes they arrive really fast, other times they take a few days.

I don't take the credit. Amazon lost an item I ordered. It set in the channel too long. I luv the fast shipping.

I usually order something from Amazon at least once a week, so Prime is a bargain for me. We also watch Prime video a lot, especially in the summer since we are not fans of all of the "talent" or reality shows.

It is interesting.  I put an item in my cart late last night but didn't finish.  Early this a.m. I notice that the price had gone down $10.  Pushed the magic button and it will be delivered tomorrow.  We do have a warehouse in the city, and a new warehouse is being built to be opened next Spring.  It will handle the big items like sporting goods, bikes, etc.  These warehouses have brought a couple thousand new jobs to our market.

I keep a shopping list on Amazon.     When the total reaches $25, I place the order.   You have to be careful to select the "free shipping  over $25"  box before you check out.

 Amazon changes 2.5 M prices daily. An item can move in price 8X in a day.  Wal-Mart and Best Buy change 50K prices a month.

I put expensive stuff on my shopping list and check it every day.

 

I put a light fixture in there and it dropped $150 one day and I snapped that puppy up.
