    Hey, trust me on this one – if you’ve got Amazon Prime mainly for the free shipping, consider dropping Prime & lumping your purchases together in orders of $35 or more to get free shipping.

    Yes, the shipping is slower. Which is also more environmentally friendly & easier to fulfill, while also free.

    You can save cheap knick knacks in a list to fluff up cheap orders. Mine involves Ti keyrings, I’ll link later. You can always use more quality keyrings.

      Two of my kids are working-age with their own debit cards, and have their amazon accounts linked to mine. My MIL’s credit card is attached to my account, so anything she wants to order, she just sends me a link. My wife just straight-up has all my logins when it comes to spending money.

      … All that, and paying for it once is easier to explain/deal with versus every order having to be >$35 . It’s a pain to get my wife to actually order things she wants/needs as it is.

      Basically, I would rather stop dealing with that company entirely, for ethical reasons, than put more thought into my dealings with them with each transaction.
