LOVE it! We do a lot of shopping on Amazon for all kinds of things and it pays for itself. I also like the 2 day shipping. We using Amazon Prime for about 30-40% of our TV viewing, Neflix for the rest.I know there are other Prime benefits, but we don't use them. 4951

@HollyHobby: Do you take advantage of any grocery shopping with this?

@TheLandLord:  We've been mostly buying foods that aren't easily found here in KW. We buy some organic stuff, oat fiber, different types of seeds, peanut flour, just bought some turmeric, stevia. I would just rather shop on Amazon than have to go to different stores to find what we need.A few years ago I bought a case of Skippy peanut butter. They had a really good discount on it.

Call me old but I just started using online shopping regularly with Amazon. I've always had an order over $35 and they offered free shipping. Most stuff arrives two to five days. I have NOT joined Prime yet but am listening to everyone.
 
I thought about buying paper towels, tp, soaps, shampoos, cleaning products, and those things that seem to just disappear. Well I put in my box the paper towels and they said it was 25% of my box. Three more items would not make the $35 for free shipping so I emptied my box.
 
What I have bought I was very happy with and plan on keeping an ear to what you guys have to say.
 
What foods are you comfortable ordering through the mail? Will they come from a secondary seller?

For us it easily pays for itself. I also paid $75 for it with a promotion code. You can share it with 3 other family members and they don't have to live at your address. For that matter, they really don't even have to be family members. I order all of my toilet paper, pet food, cleansers, vitamins and many other things from Amazon. I probably save in gas more than the membership fees cost me. 4951
