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.

Wow that was great shopping
-
Amazon does have some really great deals! I read a lot and I have gotten a lot of great free books!
-
I love Amazon, I have got some really good deals!
-
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.

you can find bargains if you look around.

I heard that amazon prime went down to 60 something a year now .

i have prime, but i have no idea how to get what you are getting. lol!!
-
Amazon is my favorite place to shop online, I love it. They do have some really great deals.
-
Sounds like you make good use of your Amazon prime membership! Good for you.
-
Amazon is a amazing for its deal but only get amazon prime if you know your going to order more then once a year because it maybe about 100 but it will pay itself off in just few shipments if you order a lot so its worth it and its second day to

Yes, you need Prime. While it's not strictly necessary to get the deals, they won't be such good deals if you have to pay shipping. I order a lot from amazon anyway, both for myself and for other people, so Prime easily pays for itself for me.
i have prime, but i have no idea how to get what you are getting. lol!!
There are several sites I use. The one I use most is Elite Deal Club. It is invitation only, but I think they give you a referral code if you don't have one to sign up with. (or you can ask me on Skype, LOL!) I've also gotten stuff from Snagshout and Amazing Deals Group.

Sounds fun! I'll check it out.

It is fun, but competition is very strong, so you have to be quick to get the deals you want. I lose a lot of deals, because my internet is so slow.
-
i too have used this program and have been able to get great things for free just for giving my opinion and i dont have prime so pretty sure thats not a requirement.
-
I have heard of amazon delivering to your door within hours of you ordering your items with the new drones i am not sure ti this is true but that is really cool if it is.
-
Amazon has some of the best deals out there on almost anything you can think of. Prices are pretty reasonable and if there is a product you want and your first thing you see is high keep looking there might be another vender thats cheaper on the same product
-
I like shopping on Amazon but only get the Amazon Prime when I am able to get a free trial.
-
To me amazon is just the last website I would go to when I cant find a deal or not.
-
I love Amazon and would like to do the reviews, but I can't see paying the $99 for prime
-
Amazon is freaking awesome when you're looking for cheap stuff. Plus the amazon prime is just icing on the cake.
-
I don't want to pay $99 every year.Instead i get $5 discount on Bing .So every time i buy something from Amazon,i apply that discount.
-
Amazon is amazing. <3
-
I got Amazon Prime & LOVE it! I save more than &10 a month using it so the free movies are BONUS. (I earn the membership money on-line so it's a win-win!!)
-
When looking for something specific, I go to Amazon first, but if I think the item is too expensive I go elsewhere for the items. I buy books specifically from Amazon. There are other sites that I make a purchase from.
-
I love amazon....especially when it gives me free shipping on things. you can get great deals on there sometimes
-
I signed up for a free trial of Amazon Prime. I shop for a lot of things there and usually get free shipping, but not two-day free shipping. Its worth a try. I think it costs $75 a year and I don't know if it will be worth it to me. Time (30 days) will tell.
