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...

I was looking at landscape lighting at Lowe's and while I like some flood lights they had, Amazon had some in-ground lights that weren't even available at Lowe's, Ace or Home Depot.

Many times it's also about saving time going to a **** ton of stores and hoping you find it on sale or reasonably priced. My wife and I both work full-time and I'm not wasting half a Saturday going shopping, hoping I can find it and it's reasonable, while I can find it on Amazon and have it shipped to me in two days. Shit, I'll pay a few dollars extra just for the convenience of getting my weekends free to do something other that shopping.
This x1000. I usually check "the stores" online (Wal-Mart [like I'm going there!!!!], Best Buy, Office Max/Depot, Lowes, Home Depot, and all the other suspects), look at Amazon, eBay, and decide from there.

And I'm sure I might be able to come close at the local store, but I rarely beat it when regular and TIF coin is added. And Wal-Mart takes a LONG time to justify (mentally). Not to mention, like Costco, you always get other shit when you're in their clutches!

And there's nothing like thinking, "Doh, I need a turn signal," and buying it right then, THEN finishing other shit (like the beer you just opened).

Please refer to the OP... I thought the same thing, now little local folk are running around the Amazon Jungle chopping down trees to keep Amazon in boxes to ship me stuff I'd get anyway!

Between teleworking (yeah, I'm all over that shit these days!!!) and Amazon, I may not shower again for a year!
For most things there is a box to check if it is a gift. Then it offers to send it wrapped. Usually $3.50 I think.

I cancelled Netflix and just started using my brother's subscription when I want to watch something that isn't on prime. Now with prime I get 2-day shipping, tv/movies, and I do like amazon music. Amazon also keeps giving me the student rate so I can't complain.
