I buy everything from Amazon, including some grocery items. If they ever start fresh grocery delivery in my area, I may never set foot in a store again.
I hadn't though of getting grocery stuff, but since I have student prime, I may have to try it. Which makes me wonder if student prime still gets the lending library? Or is it only for regular prime members? I'm probably going to upgrade anyway, because I want the video stuff, but I haven't done it yet.

I'm a little underwhelmed by the lending library--given that it's not that many books, and probably a lot of books I would read are by publishers who are not participating in that. That said, for Prime members, it is "icing on the cake" as someone else described it, so while I certainly wouldn't get Prime just for this, I'm happy to have it as an addition.

I do find the way it is set up on the website to be annoying, though.
