It started taking 5 days for deliveries during COVID so I cancelled prime and just get $35 free shipping.
I did exactly the same. It's fine if they can no longer ship in 2 days, but then lower the cost of Prime or something. It's no longer worth it, and tbh I'm going to spend a lot less money on Amazon since I won't order until I have enough for free shipping.
This is also what I do. Not very difficult to hit the free shipping. I put stuff in my cart then save for later.
Scamazon prime started looking like a bad deal to me well before COVID. When they were not meeting 2 day delivery and not compensating for it I was done with prime. I don't care much about video or music or whatever other shit comes with prime...it is all about the shipping.
How much is Prime now? And is what you get really worth that much?
