I used Amazon Prime fairly frequently, and initially (pre-COVID-19) the two-day shipping at no extra charge (as long as I was a Prime member) was sweet. Once COVID hit, the two-day shipping went away. It gets here when it gets here, and Amazon frequently encourages me to delay shipping to "Amazon Shipping Day" so all my packages arrive at once. And so Amazon doesn't spend as much getting things to me. I have the Amazon credit card, but pay it off 100% every month, so there's no interest charges. Using the card builds up credit points, which can be redeemed on future purchases. If it's a busy month on the credit card, I may have $50 or $100 of Amazon points built up to apply to future purchases, and I appreciate that. It means I sometimes pay nothing (or much less) for something I was going to purchase without the points/discount. Occasionally I enjoy streaming free videos from Prime, and there's the rare series that Amazon produces, which can only be seen on Amazon, that I happen to fall in love with. Prime would be better if the 2-day shipping came back and were reliable. The videos are OK, but truly, they'd have to include HBO and Disney offerings to get me the things I want under one streaming source, and it would have to be at no extra charge. For now, if there's something I want from a source I don't want to pay for (Netflix, for example), I'll sign up for their free month, binge the things I want, and then cancel the subscription. In a few years I'll do it again if I become aware of some other things I want that are worth binging. That's the way to go--don't be brainwashed into thinking you NEED to see that particular show or movie or series immediately. Make a list of shows, then sign up for the 30 days free viewing, and binge them. Then cancel the subscription and you've saved a boat load of cash.
