I did 80% of my christmas shopping online with Amazon – because I had free shipping. Honestly, why should I drive across town with my patience-less 4-year-old and try to brave the mall when I can buy it online competitively AND with free shipping? That is precisely the reason that people hate christmas. I ENJOYED my holiday shopping at Amazon and I found myself taking advantage of their Gold Box deals a lot more, too. They really do have some sweet bargains. I enjoyed Amazon Prime so much that I actually might consider paying for it after I get a few paychecks under my belt.
They’ve had some 1 month trials since I got my 3 month trial, but I’m pleased to see them doing another 3 month trial.
Yes!
