We bought Amazon Prime last year on Black Friday. We paid $79 discounted from $99.

I'm almost certain that you cannot get Prime for less than the $99 a year and you cannot get it for less than a year. I don't know what you mean my "this". Amazon did have 2-packs and 4-packs of Kindle Fires last Christmas season and the one before. They did not come with cases, you had to pay extra for cases. This TSV is terrific price.

But I'm not exactly 100% sure on that.

I don't think that's true, I don't even see how that would be possible. When you sign up for Prime, Amazon doesn't ask you about your income or personal questions like that.

I had no idea that people can get Prime on month by month basis or that there is a student rate. I think those of us who have been Prime members for eons, just doen't look at things like that.

When I first signed up Prime was being offered at a special price and I jumped. Since then it has been $99/yr.

I went to the page that @K9buddy provided

and on there it says:

Get Six Months Free

"Get six months free Prime Students is a discounted version of regular Prime that costs $49 per year, but you have to be a student with a .edu email address to qualify."

Discount For People On Government Assistance

"Amazon recently announced a major Prime discount for people enrolled in certain programs, bringing down the monthly fee to $5.99 for qualifying customers with an EBT card. You will need a valid EBT number to confirm your eligibility. The offer is good for up to 48 months, and you will need to re-qualify every 12 months."
