      That theory works if you’re only buying things you need. I know people that buy stuff they don’t really need and/or never use because it was cheap on Amazon.

      I bought a lot on Amazon, never paid shipping. I can just wait a week for it to show up. Only suckers pay for Prime.

      If it’s something you need right now, go to a store and buy it.

      Only if you make over 3 purchases per month. That’s what it came out for me when I checked if I should get Prime. That’s when you get the cheaper option by paying for the whole year. I might only have 3 purchases a month once or twice a year, so definitely not worth it for me.
