For me it's not the time (I almost always take the credit for picking slow shipping), it's the $35 threshold for free shipping. Even when it was $25, I used to spend far too much time and money searching for things to bring me up to $25 and $35 would be worse still.
Now, a $5 thumb drive, say? Add to cart, hit buy, done. And I've knocked an effective buck off the price by choosing slow shipping - which tends to be only a day or two later.
