I caught myself before I made a costly mistake a few days ago. I priced Bitdefender at about 26USD for 3 PC/1 year, the best price I could find at Amazon, and it was free shipping. Said so right where I selected the item. Then I looked at the cost at the end and it was twice that. Over $50.

Turns out if you select the 2 days shipping (almost automatic for me) for something that doesn't have Prime but did say "free shipping" they may mean "free shipping for regular delivery and then gouge you for 2 day if you select it.

The time was only about 2 days difference.
