Amazon Prime increasing rates

Well, for the longest time, I had prime just for shipping. The other stuff were always extras for me. I've only used prime TV for a handful of shows like Jack Reacher. There's still some value with Amazon shopping and shipping, but it's not nearly the value it used to be because other companies have caught on. Amazon doesn't always have the best prices, and with everyone doing either free shipping, or free with a minimum purchase, Amazon loses that advantage. I'm getting close to cutting them entirely myself.

My wife still orders a lot off of Amazon so the free shipping actually still has value. We'll see.
I think you can still get free shipping over like $50 too, so really if you can wait you’re fine.

Though when my little extension/grabber broke yesterday, it was nice to have free overnight to replace it. It’s enough of a pain to be non weight bearing, not having that for 2+ days would make it that much worse.
