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...

Bought the wife a 575 watt mixer for $339 which is about $120 off full price.

I don't need anything else.

Not really. We had been eyeing some higher-end tents for the troop (so we could expect them to last a little longer), but even on sale it wasn't worth it.

We did get some collapsible dog bowls for the new dog. So that was cool..

Edit: Just bought a Garmin VIVO Ftiness band...

Xbox One bundle with an extra controller and game for $200.

Listed price was $279 with a $50 Amazon gift card, and I used a bonus $30 off $150 coupon on top of that.

OK, I realize you prolly had the $50 gift card, but where did the other coupon come from?

The gift card was included in the package as part of the $279 price (so it's technically not "$50 off," but I buy so much on Amazon that I'll probably use that in a week or two). The bonus special was for using the Amazon Visa card on Prime Day.

Ah.. Good to know. And thanks for the reminder, the younger son's Bday is next week, so I just got the Xbox One, 1TB, and the three game package for $285 (I figure three games is a good start!!!), the $50 Gold Membership deal I've read I'll need, and a 32" TV for $178. So there's $514 clams I used to have...

Thanks man...

Prime deals sucked for the most part, IMO.
