Is Amazon Prime right for you?
If you hate dealing with shipping costs and but can’t always make it to a store or want to drag kids in the store with you, an Amazon Prime membership can be a great option.
In the last year Amazon has upped its game by making many items 1 day shipping! The con is that if you still need it same day – A LOT – then prime might not be the best option for you.
Another great alternative is Target’s Drive Up option, which allows you to place your order and pick it up at Target without getting out of your car. There is no additional cost to that so if an annual fee if something you are trying to avoid I would highly suggest checking it out. Wal-Mart has something similar as well and of course those are both aimed at competing with Amazon for both speed and convenience. … oh the times we live in!
Along with free shipping you also get access to prime video which has probably my favorite current binge watching… The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel… ahH… dreams of stand-up…
Free Shipping. We should probably talk about free shipping for a minute. Sometimes that free shipping isn’t really free. It often depends on the Amazon seller. They may up the price to make up what is lost on the “free shipping” or simply mark it up because they know people really, really don’t want to go to the store sometimes.
The Hybrid Method… We use both prime and target drive up…because sometimes believe it or not you can’t find what you are looking for at target or we can’t even make it to do a drive up order. I like them both for different reasons.
Try both and see what you like. If you are in college, then lucky you… You can click here to save 50% ! If you aren’t in college or a Prime Member and haven’t seen The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel… then click here to sign up and get a free 30 day trial then start bingeing!
