Amazing Amazon Deals
« on: September 25, 2015, 10:35:50 am »
I've been getting a lot of amazing deals on Amazon lately. I found a few sites that offer huge discounts on various products, some even free, in exchange for an honest review. Plus, since I have a Prime membership, I usually get a $1 digital credit for choosing slower free shipping. So far I've spent $29 on 22 products with a total worth of $284, plus got back $18 in digital credits.
I really didn't need everything I got, and most of the items I probably wouldn't have bought at full price. But there were several items I did need, even though I was unwilling to spend the money. For example, I needed a spare USB charger, which are $5.00 a piece at Family Dollar, but I got a pack of 5 of the very same ones for $2.00. Overall, I got way more than my money's worth, and the digital credits are great too, because there is a whole long list of music that I need to replace my cassette tapes.

I order a lot of items from Amazon and have Amazon Prime membership which saves me a great deal in shipping fees.  If you order Amazon Prime items the shipping is free which I love, they offer so many prime items. It's great to be able to ship a prime item from Amazon directly to someone else with no shipping charges   :)

I may have to check into this. We have to travel so far to get any deals and I get tired of the traveling. 80 miles one way gets old after a bit. Used to I would look forward to going but what with all the doctors visits it has gotten really old and all I want to do is go over and get back .  But now they will be slowing down maybe I will feel better about going once in a while.

I like shopping on Amazon and have heard of Amazon Prime, but I know it costs money, which is why I haven't yet signed up for it.

the amount of free Prime Video Content continues to dwindle and I can find a lot of merchandise elsewhere at better prices. The free shipping is less and less of factor in my shopping decision. I feel like Amazon is trying to be more than it should be, drones, phones etc. Focus on what you are good at and partner with others as needed. Haven't we seen this in other industries?

I have had the same experience.

I noticed a few days ago that they had slashed prime membership to $69! Wish that was all I had paid.
