Income. To qualify for SNAP, most households must meet the gross income test. At time of writing, a one-person household must have a pre-tax monthly income of no more than $1,265; as the household adds members, the cutoff goes up by roughly $440 a person.

And yes, Amazon offers free shipping on orders over $25.
They do *NOT* offer free second day shipping. They do not offer free ebooks, free videos, free music access, free access to ebooks, discounted access to FreeTime, etc.
The free ebooks and Prime Reading Access are easily worth $6. When I was a kid I would've killed for those perks. And my monthly allowance ($10) would easily covered both Prime and Freetime.
It's not as if Prime Perks are only for the affluent.
