Ah, I see. Thanks for your response.
I wish they had a cheaper Prime option for single people - like the student version where you can't add anyone else. I don't think I can place enough orders each year to make it worthwhile just for me.
It does seem Amazon's regular free shipping has gotten worse in recent years.
If they had more shows and movies I'd like to stream, I could probably justify the cost. I tried it for one month and it was nice, but I only got free Prime shipping on three orders (and one was a subscribe and save that I ordered regular and paid a tiny bit more just so it would ship sooner.)
